[QUOTE="rickybobbybend, post: 380547, member: 6145"] I have used both pneumatic and solid tire varieties and no problem with either. The inflated tire variety is easier to roll in mud or sand and typically is detached from the hull after launching. Easy enough to reattach. The solid wheel models I have used stay attached to the transom, but flip up out of the water after launch. The latter are less likely to get left behind when you go on a trip and really dont interfere at all with casting or fishing lines. I can tell you that both types will kill your cruising speed if you leave them down after launching :-) [/QUOTE]
