Can't you just put a new tyre and tube on the wheel? Cheaper and easier than trying to make another wheel fit surely

Guy on eBay sells extensions for the MK4 and MK2 Porter wheels, stops the bag rub and gives more ground clearance. Fitted them to mine and it's much better.
Wheel wise I have a puncture proof porter one on, they're fine on decent ground but awful in mud due to the narrower profile.

I've had a few issues with the standard explorer wheel. The main one being, I seem to need to over inflate past the recommended PSI for it to retain an actual wheel shape! Then it's a pig to push with a heavy load. I linesd tyres and used green slime to stop punctures which worked. Eventually the inner tube just split.
I looked about for a replacement and bought this off Amazon.
14" Heavy Duty Tyre & Inner Tube... https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08SC2XZ43?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
My god, it is MILES better. 4 ply instead of the Fox 2 ply, and only needed to inflate to 22 PSI with a 30psi max recommendation. It is solid. Wish I had bought this from the start and took the standard one off. I have still lined the tyre and put slime in but really pleased with it and would def recommend.

As per the other thread, if you want a puncture proof wheel for the Explorer the Screwfix Universal Walsall fits and works great.
One puncture was annoying, after the second that was it for me for inner tubes!

My Transporter just did exactly the same. I replaced mine with a rear wheel from a TriPorter which fits perfectly. ...not sure if the Explorer wheel is the same?
