Default My Crossfire Luggage has a flat

I use my Crossfire luggage a lot, especially the luggage with wheels. During my last trip last week, one of the wheels is losing the rubber on the wheel.

Does anyone know where replacement rubber can be found?

I know it didn't come with a spare (just like our cars), but maybe there is a miini can of fix a flat you could use

Good luck getting a replacement, especially since they look like the wheels on our XFires. You may need to replace both and I expect there are kits around to do that -- at least generic ones.

FP, I know the manufacturer has been discussed here before. Do a "search"

Seriously, is there not any manufacturer name on the luggage? Sorry, I'm too lazy to go look at mine. But my regular travel luggage is TravelPro and there is a local shop where I've had the wheels replaced.

180, cant thank you enough. I called them, and they are sending me two spares to replace both wheels at no cost. Nice people to deal with.


Who said we don't have a spare?


@Dan, sorry buddy, I did a search and could not find it.

How quickly can you change those out? By the time you reach the end of the moving walkway? It's your time to shine, if you ever wanted to be a pit-crew guy... GO!

They are easy to replace. I've had my luggage for almost 5 years now. I travel for business quit a bit. This luggage has traveled the world over, and never check it in, so it gets pulled all the way to the gate. This is my first wheel to go. They sent me two, so I feel comfortable having a spare now.

So they didn't wear evenly? You might want to get your alignment checked

I use mine everytime I travel by car. I've had it since 05 and it still looks brand new.

I'm glad you use them 13. They don't take much of a beating in the trunk though.

I want to see the mini jack and jack stand holding the luggage up so he can safely change the wheel.
