Yes and apparently they are a straight swap for the old ones but check first.

You see the inflatible version spreads the load better especially on softer ground as im sure you've found that the solid smaller diameter wheel simply digs in and thats that, but the inflated version is a bigger diameter and is also wider wheel making life a little easier.

Hope that helps

I stopped using them after I had two burst on sites. Its a real pain when they do!  We had a mover on the van and needed it to get the van back in its position at home. Bit difficult whithout a jockey wheel.

The plastic one shown above is best inflated to 30psi but the steel one can be inflated to a higher pressure which is marked on the tyre

Putting the pressure for a steel wheel into the plastic one can make the plastic wheel explode

Been there done that
