Set of Rubber Tires for Steam Tractors Steam tractors and steam locomotives typically have wheels made of metal, which are sometimes coated in chrome or brass. This can make the wheels delicate. Hard or rough surfaces can damage the finish. However, this issue can be addressed by using Wilesco's specially made rubber tires for steam tractors. The rubber tires are easily mounted on the metal wheel rims, protecting the tires from damage and significantly improving traction. Another benefit is reduced noise when driving and a slight cushioning for uneven surfaces.
