    Wheels are stamped steel. I think they're made for utility trailers. Tires made by Cheng Shin tire works. They make startlingly loud squelching sounds on tile floors. Tire and wheel are $79 each from NPC, and hubs are $20 each.
    Eighty bucks each for trailer wheels and tires!? Someone needs to introduce this guy to Northern Tool.
