wheels but they are £42 a set - my budget was £50 for the whole car.!!
And body got any or can point me too right direction, Google is pain in the rrrrrrr's when you put the word wheel!

Not spoked, but if I recall correctly "Screwfix" do a range of wheels which may fit the bill. HTH

What are you using as stub axles?
I need to make one for mine as well. I was thinking of ATV parts though.
Mega expensive as we do not have many in Greece.

I made a go-cart and used some plastic BMX style wheels from a kids scooter but I've also seen pneumatic tyred, pressed steel wheels at
autojumbles for £7 a pair. Same as these but cheaper!

Thought of trying your local Mobility scoorter place for a scrap scooter?
Probably a good donor as well!
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
