Work well. Takes A Good Effort to Install, Though.
These are well-made solid rubber tires that fit the wheelchair wheels very well. Like others have said, they can be difficult to get on. Knowing this, after reading many of the reviews here on Amazon, I took the wheels and these new tires to a bicycle shop to have them installed. They tried, but weren't able to get them done, because they were using a small, plastic bicycle tire installation tool, which didn't work.So, I thought I would just try it myself. I watched the installation video carefully. Then, did exactly as they did and I got the tires on the wheels in about 5 minutes each tire. You must use the two zip ties as they do in the video, and you must hold the tire in place with one hand as you go, as shown in the video.A very important thing is that you have to have leverage against the wheel as you put the tire on; especially, the further along you go, since the tighter it gets. That is why the video shows the wheel still on the chair during installation--to provide leverage so the wheel doesn't move sideways when you put it on. I actually had the wheels off for my installation, but I leveraged them between the tailgate of my truck and the bed -- holding them in place from moving side-to-side during installation. You cannot get them on without such leverage.I won't minimize the fact that it takes some muscle to pull the tire up and over the wheel rim with the tool provided, especially, the further you go. But, using the tool, and following the video installation instructions explicitly, it can be done by most reasonable fit people. But, again, the key is to leverage the wheel, or "bind" it in such a way that it doesn't move side-to-side during installation. I didn't use any lubricants, no hot water soaking, etc. They WILL fit, even though it seems like they won't. The rubber can be stretched plenty far enough to install the tires on the wheels.

couldn't be better
I am in love with my new tires. They are just as described. When I placed my order I didn't notice what else was in the picture I just looked at the size of the tires so I was pleasantly surprised with the included tools. They included everything necessary to put those tires on with minimal trouble. I thought I had to have one of my brothers to help me but with the ties and the tools my mom and I put the tires on with minimum trouble. Very happy with my purchase.

We could not get tires on wheels without a special tool. Not stated in ad
I took tires to several bike places as there were no wheel chair shop in our area. I never coul get anyone to install them so had to return. Ordered new tires & wheels already installed

Fit like a glove
Make sure your rims have the hole for a valve stem for the best fit. They will fit on solid tire rims but not good and could roll of when in a bind. The included bars are nice and work better than regular prybar. If you haven’t changed your own tires before I suggest taking them to a professional, that cheap tire installer you can buy for around $20 is pure junk and won’t work

Got Them On
Even though this tire is designed for metal wheels I opted to try them on my plastic wheels since they're the correct size. I soaked the tires in hot hot water for 30 minutes. I used the zip ties and wrestled the tires on with automobile tire irons which are longer than the ones provided. With a satisfactory "snap" the tires were on without removing the wheels from the wheelchair. I'm a 63 year old female, not that strong, so I felt the hot water presoak and the use of longer tire irons made all the difference for me.

Easy installation and smooth ride
I recently purchased these solid tires for my aunt's wheelchair, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the product. After finding a helpful installation video in the reviews here, the process was a breeze. The package contained everything we needed for the installation, and my aunt is now enjoying a smoother ride with these new tires. I highly recommend these solid tires to anyone looking for an easy-to-install, high-quality upgrade for their wheelchair

Comes with install tools. Has high rolling resistance
These tires came with the installation tools and straps to hold them in place. A friend and I put them on together and it was easier than I thought it would be. However these tires are suited for a wheelchair when someone is pushing the chair. The tires have terrible rolling resistance and if you’re pushing yourself you will get tired very fast.
