These wheels worked amazing on the Gulf Coast sand with a loaded down chair (cooler, beach bag, tent, extra chairs, etc). I had to make some modifications to make them work. The axle on the Mac Sports 2-in-1 Beach Lounger is a 10mm axle and the wheel hub axle bore is 22mm. And the axle is too long for these wheels. I could have bought a shorter axle but finding anything metric is a pain. I ordered skateboard bearings with 22mm OD x 10mm ID and placed two in each wheel with a spacer between the bearings. I had to also use spacers and washers to push the wheels out far enough so the chair arms did not rub on wheels or interfere with reclining the chair. I then had to use spacers and washers to meet the end of the axle. I used the locking nuts that came with the chair to secure everything in place. For the spacers I used some underground sprinkler pipe I found at HD. I cut it the widths I needed and placed washers on each side of the spacers. I purchased two larger washers to place on the outside of the wheel hubs. I have attached a picture of the axle with the added hardware and no wheels so all of the above makes some sense! The only change I will make is to cut enough off the spacer between the wheel bearings so I can add a washer between the bearing and spacer. Overall these are amazing and I am so glad I converted my wheels. The wheels are thick and feel like they are made well. As another reviewer stated -tighten the wheel hub screws- I had one fall out. Luckily it fell out in our roof cargo bag and not somewhere in the sand.
