Air Filled rubber tire on a metal hub is able to easily roll over uneven surfaces and bumps.	Cushioned rubber tire that is more stable and easier to roll under heavy loads than pneumatic.	Wide Rubber tread disperses the load better over irregular or softer surfaces. Less tread compression than pneumatic or solid rubber tires. Only available with off-set hub.
Requires air pressure.	Rugged and maintenance free.
