Inflation and Maintenance Instructions
Low PSI Recommended
Balloon wheels will build up air pressure with heat by nature. Therefore, you should never inflate your wheels to the maximum air pressure of 3 PSI. Too much air will lead to deformation and overstretching, thus reducing your balloon wheels' lifespan significantly. For the smoothest rolling effect, always keep your wheels under 1 PSI, and as close to 0 PSI as possible.
Inflating Wheels For the First Time
The wheels come in a square box with no air in them. Use the hand pump to slowly fill the wheels up — an air compressor inflates them too quickly and therefore may damage your brand new balloon wheels. You want to put just enough air to start to round them out. Again, these wheels are designed to stay at a low PSI so they can squat on softer surfaces. The rubber will soften up in warm temperatures. In cold temperatures, they will roll a little stiff, until they warm up.
Maintaining the Wheels When Not Using
When storing your cart in the off-season or when storing the cart, let the air out of your wheels to ensure they are not in a situation where air pressure can increase. Balloon wheels require maintenance, so check the air pressure often. You are using them in the sun and on very hot surfaces, which will cause the air pressure in any style wheel to build. Balloon wheels use a stretchable material, so too much pressure will cause the wheels to stretch and/or deform.
Repair and Warranty
Do your wheels come with a warranty? No, no one offers a warranty for these balloon wheels. We do cover manufacture defects, typically not holding air. You have 30 days to contact us to see if a wheel is covered, we do not pay shipping for you to send them back to us to inspect or us to send them back to you unless a replacement is needed - in that circumstance we will pay the return shipping.

You will not regret purchasing these! They make world of difference!
Big tires make it easy to pull, even fully loaded.
Very happy with the balloon tires I purchased from Glampin' Life. I made a beach cart out of PVC piping and built it so it would come apart to fit behind my front seat for easy transport. The beach we go to is about a 1/4 mile wide and these tires make the trip a breeze.
Happy with ballon wheels. The wheels Rolled on top of the sand making pulling the beach cart much easier than our past upright cart.
The wheels work great as well.
Much easier to navigate on the beach than standard cart wheels.
Did the job
Hard to figure out the right psi. Yes, I followed the video, maybe they just need a break in period. But they work great
Great quality...easy to order and fast to ship
Bought the upgraded 12in wheels with bearings and they work great. Don't have anything to compare them to but they glide through our fine sand with no problem.
tires are awesome
Highly recommend the upgrade if you have to move the cart significant distances. Very smooth and feels heavy duty.
Highly recommend when you purchase the cart
We think it was worth the investment. We'll touch back later hopefully to let everyone know. The construction of the cart is such that regular wheels might have out lasted our old butts but maybe the bearings will help it last for our daughter to use after we've done all we can.. =-)
Shipp d quickly. Great company.
