Minibike wheels and tires?

[Hounddog]

Here is a set of minibike wheels and tires. Not sure what they came off of. Any ideas?

The Tires still have the nubs on them and are in near new condition. They are General Jumbo JR's in size 8 x 3.00 x 4. The wheels are two piece steel wheels with bearings. Any help would be appreciated.

Being as narrow of a tread they may be off an industrial cart maybe?
I have 6" Carlisle double Indian head tires/rims that came off a hand cart and your rims kind of have the same look.
Cool tread non the less, nice find!

Thanks for the info. I thought that I had seen them before on some minibike? Maybe just the tires? Thanks again!

The stretch of tires (tires are narrow for the wheels) makes me think they are not original to the wheels.

Those same style wheels and tires were on a dolly where I used to work, they were the same yellow color.

I have seen that tread design on a mini bike or maybe a kart. I checked my 59 Flea, and those were 10 X 3.50-4 and they don't get much smaller than that. However what you have there would work on a small frame vintage design of that genre. I think they'd look "better" on the Flea than the larger ones do in fact.

That tread design was used on Hiawatha Doodlebugs
