I am in the market for new tires for my Jet 18".
I found a (2019) thread about Blue Max tires from Band saw Tire Warehouse.
No luck in finding that site.

I did fine Urethane tires on "Sulphur Grove Tool site along with choices on Ebay.
Any recommendations on the best replacement?

Thanks, Robert

I had a Jet 18" saw from 2014 to 2021 and put the orange Sulphur Grove urethane tires on it as soon as I bought it, since the lower tire was falling apart. The tires were still as good as new when I sold the saw, even though I had cut a lot of wood and a fair bit of brass on the saw over the years. They had some scuffing or surface marks but no wear.

Sulphur Grove Tool has good ones, I'd get them again.

I ordered the tires from Sulphur Grove tool. Was surprised about how small they were. A good soak in very hot
water and as many zip ties as I could install they were a fight to the finish as it was my first time installing band saw tires.
Thought about removing the wheels but ended up doing it in place. The second tire took 1\3 the time.

Appreciate all the help of this amazing group of experienced Wood Folk.

Thanks, Robert
