So I just got my Wheeleez cart, the one with the fat tires. The tires are kind of inflated but definitely not tight with air - do i need to fill them up some more? I don't want to over-inflate for fear of blowing my brand new tires. I don't have a pressure guage...anyway, if you guys know if they are shipped ready-to-use from the factory, please let me know.
 Thanks!

I think they are good to go out of the box.  You only want 2lbs, I think, like ATC tires.

Low inflation pressure helps the tires float on the sand, just like car tires.

I have the smaller Rollezee wheels that came with my Hobie....

 I have a pressure gauge and pumped them up well below 2psi, and one tire is

 Bluging out the side.  It's now rubbing against the scupper cart :smt013...

 Does anyone know warranty issues or has anyone heard of this happening?

 I will be checking with Rollezee on this one...

Thank God I ordered my new set of Biggins....... Danglin

yo danglin, i used my fat wheeleez right out of the box and they work great. i do recall reading in the paperwork that if you overinflate you void warranty. good luck.

I realize that they come flat, but the small ones don't even roll while flat!!! I tried it once. So it was ovious

 that it needed some air, and I was careful as to not over inflate, and the one tire is fine....

 I'm not too broken up about this, I've got the " Fatties " comming.... Just wondering if anyone has had

trouble with this.............

  Bottom Line.......... Scupper Carts Suck :smt019 ......... Danglin

Don't over inflate them. if they are too hard it is easy for sharp objects to puncture the soft-supple-rubber(done it) When they are sitting in the "COLD" garage, they feel under inflated, but when sitting in your car/veh. they warm-up,expanding the trapped-air(scientifics) and get harder.

on the smooth roads and trails the firm pressure is best, but on that sand and bumps, it's the soft-serve everytime!
