Cracked up tires

Guys, My front tires are next to no good. Both leak air and are cracked up really bad, so a tube is out of the question. What do y'all suggest I do to squeeze just a little more life out of them? I can't spend $140 bucks on new tires. To make matters worse, they are(as luck would have it) an odd ball size. (22x7-10) Any suggestions?

Why is a tube out of the question? My rears are cracked so bad they are missing chunks of the outer rubber... a tube works fine for them. #shrug#

I figured they would just slice the tubes. Plus, I can't find any that fit my tire size.

mine were cracked really bad i bought tubes and a thing of thick silicone and rubed it into the cracks now you cant even teell it had cracks

Like I said, I can't seem to find any tubes that fit my tire size. I hate odd ball sizes.

Whats the bolt pattern for the rim? what about finding use tires and rims.

i found a 23x7x10 tube it would work just wouldnt fill it up all the way

Don't know. All I know is the hubs came off a Honda 250 HPX ATV. How much and where did ya find the tube?

tubes don't have to be the exact same size as the tire thay will streatch quit a bit just dont get one bigger then your tire becouse you don't wont to wrinkel the tube in the tire becouse it wont last that long that way

I suppose I could. Tubes themselves are pricey at napa. Almost $20 bucks for two. I know, I'm nuts to say $20 bucks is a lot, but I'm trying to save big time because I don't yet have a job yet. What size of tube do y'all suggest I get?

http://www.kenjones.com/Scripts/XListAll.aspx?XGID=TUBES_ATV they have a whole bunch of different tubes there

Have a look on ebay, I got a new inner tube for the front wheel of my tractor for less than £10. I have to get a new tube for one of the rear tires at some point and thats only £13.

What's that in US dollars?

its about 16 dollars 72 cents for 13 euros

Gotcha, bout the same here. I'm heading into town now. I'll see what I can find for tubes.

I am in the UK, the UK does not use euros, we use pounds.
£13 is about $20.90 USD

OK. I found nothing. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

No, There are 17 countries that use the euro, luckily the UK isn't one of them.

sorry it took couple days to respond dont mess with auto parts stors for tubes find a tire shop tell them what size tire you have and thay should have something to fit

Yeah, They don't have it anyway. I'm going to look around on the web and see if I can dig up something.

...Homemade Tire fix...

1 tube of Latex Window Caulking. Cost $2.00
1 cup old used or cheap antifreeze. Cost ?
10 squares of Good quality toilet paper. YES tp..
mix 1/2 of antifreeze with the tp the other with the Caulking.
Then mix the tp slurry and caulking slurry well.


Knock the bead of one side of tire and pour mix into the tire.
Air up the tire to desired PSI and slosh around.

Yes it works.

Wow. TP?? Your kidding. Do you pour both mixtures in the tire?

LOL No, you drink the TP mixture LOL

I would guess that both get poured into the tire...

Mix the tp slurry WITH the caulking slurry mix up good pore it into tire.

The tp acts as a clotting agent for bigger holes.
