What kind of tires do you put on your derby cars...The tires that come on the car. Or a heavy ply tire....I have been running 14'' on the back of my cars, and 13'' on the front...
WE LIKE TO RUN THESE TIRES ON BACK AND FORK LIFT TIRES ON THE FRONTS :hypno:

last year we were cleaning up a freind of mines shed becouse they had a tire hual off so he broke out the sawzaw and i brought over the cattle trailer(witch we filled twice and had a few left) but all the tires still on rims we cut off with a sawzaw and i was screwing off with some of the beads and we shoved a bunch of them inside of a flat tire laying around-like a 14 in rim for a dodge car he later ran- but he never put any air in it and it looked like it was aired up other than off the beed but worked great for a rear tire on a fwd car
ive heard of putting feild tile in tires- havent tried it yet, going to easy to find for me grandpa lays it
doubling is hard much less for a 13inch tire becouse you cant find much smaller than that to fit inside without robbing the lawn mower
i run snowbiters from firestone and goodyear snowrunners
Bob cat tires are the best to run on the back and for the front use u haul tires. The really thick ones they put on tow dollies and stuff.
