new rubber on my tub carts

[Jake Kuhn 1,547]

Hi guys,

Finally got some new tires on my tub carts. I put on new carlisle sawtooths with tubes. The rims on it were ok...but I wanted to paint them. I put a good coat of primer on, and base/clear coated the rims. The paint is a little off from the original, but are good enough for these. I might end up restoring one of these carts, not sure yet. Here's a couple pictures.

What brand of tires Jake?

Never mind. Didn't see the "Carlisle" in the post.

Nice looking wheels & tires.

I have found that the Rustolium Almond is a dead ringer for the Linen Beige for WH wheels.

Wheels are looking great Jake.

The hardest part is over tires and hubs, Now the easy part painting the tub red. LOL

Wow! Tires and wheels look great Jake. I can't wait to see those carts when you get them painted. Be sure and post pics.

Thanks guys...I'm not sure about painting them yet. There so straight right now I don't know if I will. One of them is staying original for sure...but I might restore one of them.

Just came back from my local tire dealer where I ordered a set of genuine Carlisle 4.80-8 Sawtooth's for my tubs. He had to order them, but I can pick them up on Monday. $20 each plus tax.
