http://www.carterproducts.com has tires and was including a reprint of an old FWW article on how to recrown tires. Article should be available at http://www.owwm.com Also Iturra sells tires. They advertise in most of the wood mags. I don't think I would send it to where you did. Not sure what process they are using but why is there a seam? You might check out the new poly tires.
had such problems trying to get the tires. apparently al the new wheels are crowned i thought it was only the rubber that was crowned ? my wheel was flat and a width of 1 1/4" so wasnt standard all i got was a bunch of no can do's so i got some rubber(neoprene) glued on for a 100 bucks hope it works . total investment so far $600 canadian about a buck and a half american thanks for the info on carter think i might want to change guides in the future if these ones dont do the job ttyl dan
