    who knew it would be this hard to find tubes for a 17" (1933-1934) wheel.

    any suggestions as to a source?

    I'm also willing to bet that 16" tubes will work just fine. Just remember to use a rim band.

    Just a thought but would a motorcycle inner tube work in a car tire?

    Probably in a pinch but the valve stem is offset for cars and centered for bikes.
