Any one out there give some advice ?
I have a prestons "On Box" trolley, my problem is that I am plagued with punctures.
Is there a Hard type of tyre that I can fit ?
any constructive advice welcome

My on box Trolley wheels are solid so Preston may have some in stock. The only problem is they do appear to be narrower that the pneumatic ones.

Buy some 'slime' from a mountain bike shop, you spray it in through the valve, and when you get a puncture it covers the hole and stops air getting out.

Thanks for the info ref "slime" Ive seen this stuff at a bike shop but it was near £10 and I think it would be difficult to get it into the valve. It was hard enough pumping the tyre up!
I Had emailed Prestons who said speak to my local tackle shop to order hard tyres (Morse had mentioned it earlier)
Now I find the wheels are half the width on the axle as the blow up tyres, so now I'm after some spacers!
Nevermind, I'm sure I will sort it
Thanks again for the "slime" info.
