I don't think they want to change them, just asking what the name of the wheels are. Sorry I don't know.

I really like them too...couldn't do with wire brushing, and rubbing down, then a spray :thumbsup:


They look similar to the wheels that Bean bought last year and cleaned up for one of her projects...Maybe send this picture in a PM to Bean and ask her if she knows :-

Do they have any letters or numbers on them, could give a clue for part numbers.

by the way your English is better than some of the natives on here!

Don't have anything written on, it is difficult to know because minis in Chile have Argentinian, Chilean and Spanish wheels too, but in the almost 4 years I have in the "mini world" I haven't ever see this model.

PS: Thanks for the comments
