    What caught my eye is that they say the "tire can't come off" -- if you can put it on, it can bloody well come off!

    Doubt its gonna build enough pressure to force it off. If worried, tie it on from the underside with some small zip tie or a fine gauge insulated wire.


    A much cheaper alternative than others I have seen.

    I have replaced two of mine & they work fine.
    $20 each & only $3 postage to Australia!!
    Sure beats the shite out of $150 for OEM!!!

    Lower 48 in general. Otherwise Central Mitten.

    They are square shouldered with a pressure fit, and under normal operating pressures they will not roll off the lip. You would have to stretch the mounting shoulder to get it to go over the lip on the slide.
