"Previous to finding this wheel for our Rubbermaid manure cart, my husband had been using baling wire and metal strapping to fix our old wheel. We did not know that a replacement wheel was available until we saw it in the Northern catalog.
Our cart is now as good as new and will last many more years. Thank you Northern Tool for handling this wheel!"

Wheels but no shaft,

By Box28 from Charleston, SC
"These wheels seem to be alright but there is no shaft available here to fit this item. I ordered a few of them for some carts but am having to turn down the original shafts to fit this 1/2" hub. It would be nice if northern added shafts to their product line."

Good product, fair price,

"I bought these as a replacement for a similar wheel. The new wheel from Northern seems to be much stronger than the one I replaced, in which the spokes had broken away from the outer portion of the rim. I do wish that the tires were a little wider, but other than that, I think these assemblies are a great product."

Great set of replacement wheels,

"After many years most of the wire spokes on the old wheels had pulled through the rim. We looked around local stores and online. These proved to be a great way to go. With a little help from the experienced gardener in the family we had the old wheels off - and these new wheels in place - and now the cart is better than it was when it was new."

Indestructable wheels for carts,
May 22, 2007
By Ripley from Castle Rock, Co
"I have used these wheels to build 27 dog carts over the past 5 years. The carts are used for AKC carting events for Swiss breeds, Newfies, Rotties etc and need to carry 200+ lbs while twisting through sand, grass, mud etc. These wheels are very rugged and resist twisting better than a spoked wheel. Lighter as well. Easy to mount on a 1/2 inch axle with a 1/2 inch shaft coller to lock on.
Put in a 20" tire liner for flat protection. I have recommended these wheels from Northern Tool in my cart building classes so no telling how many are in use for dog carts!"

A solid wheel for a fair price...,
November 17, 2006
By DeuceGooseFlyer from Baltimore, MD
"Recently we were posed with the problem of finding a set of 4 sturdy, lightweight, bicycle style wheels, that were reasonably priced for an event that was occuring in just a few days. We needed to construct a cart to support several hundred pounds that had a relatively low rolling resistance. I remebered seeing these at Northern, and once ordered, they came thru with a speedy delivery. I was pleased with the quality when they arrived, but even more pleased when, due at least in some small part to these fine wheels, our cart (and the craft it carried) outperformed our expectations. For the price, these are an excellent choice, and the plastic rims lend themself well to daily abuse and exposure to the elements."
