Somewhere I remember seeing a warranty description for the Jackson
Professional Tools wheelbarrow tire and tube from Home Depot.

Do you know anything about that?

The wheelbarrow is a few years ago and I don't have the receipt
(who saves that stuff anyway?)

The 4.80/4.00-8 (whatever that means) tire (with tube inside) won't hold air.

Would you get a new tire or would you just buy a new tube (or patch it)?
Any idea if there is a warranty?

I don't have a "Jackson" but I did buy my wheelbarrow at HD.
When my tire lost air, I called the number for the manufacturer
and they shipped me a new one. No questions asked, the tires
are guaranteed for the life of the wheelbarrow.

This says the warranty is 90 days for the wheelbarrow (nothing
specific about the wheel though):

I am going to call their customer service:

Jackson Wheelbarrows: 1-800-807-2589

What numbers are important on the wheel in case they ask?

Don't know.
The outfit I called already knew I had one of their wheelbarrows.

Good luck.

The last number is for the rim/wheel size, Huckleberry. First two
numbers are the size of the tire, unless I forgot.

As a public service to the team, I found out that you can get a *free*
wheel assembly from Ames (who makes the steel "Jackson" wheelbarrow that
Home Depot sells).
http://www.homedepot.com/p/Jackson-6-cu-ft-Steel-Wheelbarrow-M6KBUT12/206205928

I found this out by calling 800-807-2589 (x1 customer service) and speaking
with Tracy at x3588.

The procedure is:
1. Snap pictures of the entire wheelbarrow
2. Send your name/address/phone & pictures to pa...@ames.com
3. Tell them why you think it failed prematurely

Even though your wheelbarrow may be years out of the 90-day original
warranty, if it wasn't abused, they will most likely send you a free
pre-assembled pre-inflated wheel assembly containing:
a. rim
b. tube
c. wheel

All you have to do is remove the old wheel-and-rim and put the new
wheel-and-rim on the axle (and grease the axle).

Good to know!
