I so wish we lived near each other. I'd send DH over to fix your wheels lol. He's a hoarder, I probably have some that would fit!
That would be waaaay cool!

Here it is: https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/p...-big-wheel-farm-cart-7-1-2-cu-ft?cm_vc=-10005

Not really any way to pull it behind something. Replacement wheels are $40.00 apiece. Half the price of a whole new cart, lol. I did tell DH to go ahead and order them - but I think he dis-remembered. I need to just go ahead and get 'em. It's a great cart when it has round wheels, lol!!

I have a dump wagon like this one that we bought.....letsseee.... maybe 7 or 8 years ago? It has a blown out sidewall tire and another one needs replacing. Tires are half the price of what I paid for it. I am still dragging it, flat tire and all. But my lambs are better behaves than your kids. LOL LOL



Lowes has dump wagons in stock, might have to mosey on down there to check them out.

That is VERY pricey! Think, girl --- high wheeled mower, old kids toy, bicycle, anything like that may fit?? Then check junk shops, 2nd hand, used/repair shops, etc. You can find something. OR -- is it the size of a bike tire? put one over it? Just smooth the rough spots out. (like a slip cover).
Are there chunks missing? thinking this is a solid tire. Fill it and wrap with tape. So you replace the tape occasionally, so what. If solid, you can buy this roll of stuff @ lowe's that you wet, wrap tight/stretch. It dries hard. Repair tool handles, pipes, etc.

:D think bandage :D You can fix this.

It definitely is a solid rubber tire. I'm afraid a bicycle wheel wouldn't hold up to the weight I throw in that thing - and constantly having to air it up would pi$$ me off, lol. Hmmm, might have to give a thought to some sort of repair...but again...I put 300 - 400 lbs at a time in it so it would have to stand up to a lot of abuse. Mothers Day is coming up - should I just ask for replacements, lol??
