This is a 4.80/4.00-8 pneumatic (air-filled) tire and inner tube set designed to replace worn or flat wheels on wheelbarrows, garden carts, hand trucks, and some small lawn utility trailers. It’s a direct fit for standard 8-inch rims with a 4-inch width.
Fitment & Compatibility
Before buying, confirm three things:
- Tire size: Marked as 4.80/4.00-8 (4.80 inches wide, 4.00 inches profile height, 8-inch rim diameter). This replaces most 4.00-8, 4.10/3.50-8, or 4.80-8 tires, but measure your existing tire’s sidewall numbers.
- Rim width: Works on rims 3.5 to 4.5 inches wide. If your wheelbarrow hub is narrower or wider, this tire may not seat properly.
- Axle hole: The tire itself has no axle hole—you reuse your existing rim/hub. If you need a complete wheel (tire + rim + bearings), this is not that. This set includes only the tire and tube.
Key Things to Know
- Quality: Thicker tread than typical budget tires, with a 4-ply rating. Expect decent puncture resistance for garden/yard use, but not heavy construction debris.
- Installation: Moderate difficulty. You’ll need tire irons or large screwdrivers to mount the tire onto your existing rim. Inflate the tube slowly and check for pinching between tire and rim.
- Common gotcha: The tube’s valve stem is straight (not angled). Ensure your rim has a valve hole that aligns with the stem’s position—some older rims use angled stems.
- Load rating: Rated for ~500 lbs per tire, fine for a loaded wheelbarrow or cart. Not designed for high-speed trailer use.
Should You Buy It
Buy this if you need a rugged, air-filled replacement for a standard 8-inch wheelbarrow or garden cart tire and don’t want to replace the entire rim. It’s a solid value for the thicker tread and included tube, but skip it if your rim is damaged or you need a complete wheel assembly.
