RRQ 4.80/4.00-8 Wheel & Tire 2-Pack — 16in Pneumatic Wheelbarrow Tires, Pre-mounted Bearings & Adapter Kit

These are two pre-assembled 4.80/4.00-8 pneumatic tire and wheel assemblies by RRQ, ready to replace worn wheelbarrow or cart wheels and adapt to either 3/4" or 5/8" axles with the included adapter kit.

Replace tired or damaged wheels quickly with this 2-pack of 16-inch pneumatic wheelbarrow tires that come pre-mounted on one-piece welded rims and fitted with 3/4" bearings. RRQ includes a simple 5/8" iron tube adapter and a set of nylon spacers so the wheels install easily on a variety of utility equipment without removing the bearings. Each wheel has a centered 3" hub and can be extended up to 7" using the supplied spacers for a secure fit on many hub lengths.

How do these tires fit different axle sizes?

The wheels arrive with 3/4" bearings already pressed in, but an included 5/8" ID iron tube adapter lets you slide the assembly onto a 5/8" axle without pulling the bearings. For axial or hub length adjustments, RRQ supplies nylon spacers you can stack to reach the needed hub length.

• Pre-mounted 3/4" bearings for immediate 3/4" axle use
• 5/8" ID iron tube adapter for 5/8" axles—no bearing removal
• Nylon spacers (eight 1/2" and four 1") to lengthen hub up to 7"

What are the size and load specifications I should expect?

Each tire measures approximately 15.5" in overall diameter with a 3.7" tread width, matching common 4.80/4.00-8 size specifications. The rim is a one-piece welded steel construction and every wheel is rated for a maximum static load of about 400 pounds.

• Tire size: 4.80/4.00-8 — diameter ~15.5", width ~3.7"
• Centered hub length: 3", extendable up to 7" with spacers
• Max load capacity: roughly 400 lb per wheel

How durable and serviceable are these wheels?

RRQ uses natural rubber inner tubes and tires for good airtightness and shock absorption, while the steel rim is welded as a single piece for strength and longer life. Grease fittings on the hubs allow routine lubrication, and the pre-mounted bearings speed replacement jobs so you can get equipment back to work quickly.

• Natural rubber tire and inner tube for airtightness and cushioning
• One-piece welded rim for structural durability
• Grease fittings included for easy maintenance and longer bearing life

Which tools or accessories are included to make installation easier?

The package contains the two complete wheel assemblies plus an adapter kit: two 5/8" ID iron tubes and a set of nylon spacers in multiple lengths so you can match hub spacing without extra parts. This reduces the chance you’ll need to modify bearings or order specialty adapters.

• 2 x 5/8" ID iron tube adapters for smaller axles
• 8 x 1/2" nylon spacers and 4 x 1" nylon spacers to adjust hub length
• Pre-installed bearings and grease fittings—no extra hardware required

Who is this for: Handy homeowners, landscapers, gardeners and small-farm operators who need a robust, easy-to-install replacement for wheelbarrows, carts, hand trucks, generators or small utility trailers. If you want a ready-to-fit wheel with good load capacity, greaseable bearings and an adapter kit to match multiple axle sizes, this RRQ 2-pack offers a practical, long-lasting option.
