Bandsaw tires for 12" Jet

[Michael Drew]

I had no idea there were so many options...... My 12" Jet's tires are black rubber. One came off yesterday, and it appears stretched. Any suggestions for type/brand? Where to buy them?

I installed a set of Blue Max urethane tires on a 14” Delta and am quite pleased. I got mine from an eBay seller at a good price with free shipping but, as you noted, there are many options. No experience with them but I’ve seen positive comments about Sulphur Grove Tool.

I've run Sulphur Grove tires for the last 20 years. First set only lasted 17 years. Upper tire went first, and a week later, the lower went. Syncronized failure, or they just plain wore out, you choose.

Thanks for the help. I hopped over to Ebay and ordered the Blue Max set yesterday.
