We had an old riding mower with big knobby tires, one of which was
flat.

My son bought a cart from HF to tow behind his new mower for
neighborhood jobs, but it had very small tires. We took out the
reciprocating saw and grinder, enlarged the wheel wells, put some
tubes in the old mower tires and put them on the trailer - a much more
rugged look.

The tubes/tires have held air for well over 5 years. The cart is
getting pretty rusted out, but the old tires are still rolling along.
