Genuine Porter Cable Wheel Tire for Band Saw. This part is made out of Rubber and is Sold Individually. When putting the tire on a band saw Wheel, it may seem too small but it is not. Band saw Tires will typically come approximately 2 or more inches smaller than the Tire you're replacing. The old Tire stretches over time thus becoming less effective and eventually will break. Also, as Tire ages the rubber hardens and allows the Blade to slip. You would need to put the New Tire in Hot/Warm Water to heat the tire enough to make it pliable enough to stretch. Its preferred to use two people in the stretching process.
Removed top pulley after releasing tension and blade. stretched new tire a few times and the worked it onto wheel.
For the bearing I removed the bearing and shaft. I used a set of snap ring pliers to remove old bearing and after putting a couple of drops of oil on shaft I put the new bearing on and set the snap ring back in place..
... Read morereassembled everything thing and set tension and spacing. Works like new.

Remove the old tires from the wheels. Soak the tires in very hot water for a few minutes. Then stretch them on to the wheels, it does help to have an extra pair of hands to help with this.
