You get what you pay for ,cheap tires cheap results , look at the big picture , down time and flat repairs , Grandmother use to always say you can't make chicken salad when all you got is chicken shit ---- Perry , Who told you they can't recap them , I have sent trucks loads to be recapped at Commercial Tire and Rethreading , they charge $125 to recap the equivilant of a 10 x 16.5 , the procedure is different on the second cap , Toby Sexton uses a cold vulcanizing cap where as the rethreaders use a hot rethread , you can't run them down to the threads are exposed as at that point the second cap will let go sometimes if dirt is pushed into exposed threads , so it is best to have an inventory of used ones so a set is being recapped and ready when needed , they can put almost any thread you desire on the tire , if most of your work is o concrete you can have a highway thread , of loader lug , or what ever -------they are expensive the first time you buy them as you have to buy the rims , they very , very seldom go flat as they are either a 28 or 32 ply tire , the side walls are just as thick as the bottoms , there is a tube inside of them with a boot , the rims are bolt together split rims , so if you run tracks on top of them it is possible , but very rarely that it happens , if you do get a flat , which you will not even know it if it does happen cause the tire is so stiff that you would have to make a capacity lift to notice it , that "I" can split the rim with the tracks still together on the machine and change or patch the tube and reassemble in about 15 minutes max , using regular tires with tracks will eat you aive with down time and flat repairs , most tire companies here won't even take a track off of a machine to fix the tire , the rental companies like RSC etc procedure on a machine on rent to you with tracks is to have a mechanic come out , remove the track , wait for the tire guy to fit it , then reinstall , one or two adventures like that and the tires are paid for , the segment tires are very expensive to replace the segments and they do tear up , the foam fill I find is too much weight on the axle bearings and have caused early failures when acompanied with the weight of tracks , with floatation tires and tracks you can get numerous flats in the same day working in say a house demolishion , to me the Toby Sexton's / tracks is the best way to go , penny wise dollar foolish , time is money , just my .02 cents
