They worked great and easily rolled a 1000lb projectile.

Bought to fit a car chassis to drive in my garage. They worked great and rolled easily with a 1000lb case. I can easily roll my car into the garage without much effort. Tires smell pretty bad, you wouldn't want to use them around your house, but they're fine in the garage. Otherwise I'm very happy with it, it's definitely worth the money.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some issues

Great skates but they wobble

I would give them 5 stars if the skates didn't wobble. You don't have to push the cart really fast for them to really wobble like an "L". It doesn't matter whether the trolley is loaded or not. I solved the problem by attaching the front of the mounting plate with a 1/8" flat washer. This greatly reduced the problem. I can't say they are all the same as the pair I received, hence your upholstery requirements may be different.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Weight

but didn't like the initial rubber smell

5 stars so far because they come with an oil nipple and no paint peeling. I appreciate how the edges are beveled, but didn't like the initial rubbery smell. I was apprehensive about this but the overall reviews here made me give it a try. Here's what I did. After I received my 8x4s I left the box outside for a few days to see if that would help. There is no joy. Once the sun hit them I didn't want to be within 10 feet of the box. I hate that smell. The next step is to clean them. My favorite…

  • Best in its niche

man up. Good roles.

I smell like toxic waste. boo hoo I work in a store where I have the stink of all the tills inside and out 10 hours a day. I can handle it until it's gone. They serve my purpose 100%. sissy man. Spray the tires with that perfume you took out of a man's purse and call it good. Have you ever seen a grown man cry? Read reviews up and down. Or just find a Caster scented spray here on Revain and solve your girly problems that way.

Pros
  • Cymbal rolls
Cons
  • String shorter than other picks

lasts longer but rides over bumps

We use them for a kart stand to get karts on and off the grid. These solid tires are much more durable than pneumatic tires, but the ride will be rough on bumpy roads. I will continue to use them but didn't expect the massive tires to make such a big difference. I usually push the kart by hand, but when we're in a hurry and drag it behind a golf cart, the way this thing bounces over small bumps makes me worry that the kart will fall off the stand.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • boring packaging

Heavy and looks like heavy duty

These are pretty solid reels with pretty poor behavior which is why I wanted to return them. Too much vibration. They were riding a cart that would be pulled at walking speed, and the wheels were shaking madly. Loading helps, but this cart doesn't always load. The problem depends on the wheel weight and the tread. In fact, about 3/4 inch of the wheel face is in contact with the ground, and with "off-road" tread it has even less contact with concrete. This means a big swing/cart wheel effect at…

Pros
  • Handling Equipment
Cons
  • No Instructions
