Todd, appreciate the information.

 

These sound like the ticket for the latest project I'm working on.

Glenn,

Mine have a season on them and still look like new. As Mike said they have a
hard rib in the center of the tire that really helps them hold up. I've
never had a tire roll off the hub, however, I pulled the tire back and put
several drops of CA on the wheel before installing them on the plane.

 

Nice, light wheels at a reasonable price..

Todd

Todd,

 

How's the wear factor been on the plastic axle inserts and the foam/rubber
tires?

 

Regards,

 Don't know Ron but they been out for a while. They are pretty nice. The
plastic insert in the center of the foam makes a big difference. Mike

Two years?!  As a regular Maxx Products customer, I wonder how I missed
them.

wheel hubs anodized in gun-gray, are very light weight and the AW200, AW250,
and
AW300 wheels have 1/8" rubber layer sandwiched between light foam to
maintain its shape under weight. Each wheel comes with 3 sets of axle
inserts to
fit different wheel axles. I got some AW2.50 (2 1/2") wheels to go on my
latest airplane and am very impressed with the quality and light weight of
the
wheels. You can go here to look: http://www.maxxprod.com/mpi/mpi-29.html The
"street price" is about 2/3 of the listed price. Ron
