I'm so sick of regular tires, they're always flat when I turn around.
I use it for moving halloween decor.
So, I'd like to get tires I'll never have to worry about again, at least not every bloody week!
Anyone know how long solid rubber ones last?
How do you measure to fit new sizing? I want to up the diameter, as you can see, there is some space before the metal blocks it. And it's not a typical type, just holes in metal holding the center, so I could potentially widen if necessary. Idk all the right terminology.

Have you tried to slime your tires? I'd bought a bottle last fall and did all of mine and didn't have a single flat this year. Just two got low when the weather cooled down. Looks like you have a problem with seating on your rims. Perhaps your inner tubes need to be replaced?

There is no inner tube. Have done slime on other wheels, mower, but I want a permanent fix. Didn't come with any and haven't seen any bikes with that. 🤔
 
My sister has solid wheels on her cart. They would probably outlast you.
I have tires with heavy duty tubes with slime. The only thing that happens with them is if I let the air get low the valve stem will fail. I've run over mesquite thorns and punctured the tire/tube. Pull out the thorn and they reinflate perfectly.
