wheels for homemade cart - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Since the thread about getting stuck in the sand has made me reconsider driving my front wheel drive car in the sand, I decided to make a cart - are these wheels going to cut it??

they look too hard and narrow. search for a pic of a beach wheelchair and use wheels like that

I've had the Harbor Freight wheels on my kart for a couple years, still working fine.
