Terry, I have been using a replacement wheel recommended by Kim Prout which I am
sure is the same one Dennis is using. So far the wheel has performed much
better
than the original one which lasted less than one day. Kim Prout and I were
aggressively taxing my plane prior to the first flight when the wheel
disintegrated.
Anyway the wheel is basically an industrial caster made by Colson, check out
their
catalog.

I went with the round grey tread series 2 vs the flat tread which is what Europa
provide. They are realtively inexpensive at less than $10 each and will need
a bushing for the proper bolt diameter which was also available at the local
hardware store.

Does anyone have a recommendation for outrigger wheels, something a
little higher quality than those included in the kit?
