[K3pzn-board] TrailerTire Prices

[Steve Beckman]

Clint;

Thanks for the research you've done. I'm really surprised how quickly those
tires went bad. It seems like they weren't replaced all that long ago. At
least it seems that way. 

I wonder if there's some kind of tire we could get that would have an
extended lifetime. Tractor tires seem to last a good while. We're not going
to put miles on the tires -- we just need them to not rot out all by
themselves. Does anyone know if inner tubes are still made for tires like
these??

Otherwise, I think the cheaper tires are the answer. We'll probably have
some discussion about this Monday night.
