    As some others have said

    As some others have said only 1 in the pack and the description clearly states a pair so it's double the price of what it says. :-(

    Pros
    • Satisfied so far
    Cons
    • Not the best

    Revainrating 1 out of 5

    Spare wheels for cosco trolley.

    Not bad, the wheels are plastic rather than rubber. After some time it will update how long it will take. I've driven my car through hell, honestly don't know how long they will last.

    Pros
    • Pleasant
    Cons
    • No instructions

    Just ONE impeller is not a pair!

    ONE wheel is good quality and fits my Creeper but it is only one wheel and not a pair as advertised. Look elsewhere for a better deal rather than buying a wheel if you're paying for a pair.

    Pros
    • Sleek design
    Cons
    • Could have chosen a newer model

    Fits my tool box seat on wheels

    Perfect fit for my tool box seat that I ride my bikes all day. A wheel broke off and fell off. I ordered them and replaced the two front ones. They're a lot thicker than the ones that were on them. Same size 2.5 inch but much thicker. Ideal.

    Pros
    • Excellent fit for me
    Cons
    • Doubtful

    Works but missing parts.

    This is the exact same wheel mounted on the Harbor Freight mechanic's seat. I had a broken roller and it fit perfectly. Unfortunately, one wheel was missing a nut that cannot be bought in hardware stores, so only 1 star for the packaging. I only needed 1 wheel and since it's 2 packs I didn't yell about it.

    Pros
    • Durable Test Results
    Cons
    • Can't remember

    Product NOT as advertised

    As described, should be sold in pairs (2 per pack). So I ordered a total of 3 packs containing 3 pairs (6 total) of these reels. After I received them and opened the package, I received 3 packages each with 1 roll (3 pieces in total). This doesn't do me any good as I only need 6 rollers to fix the creeper.

    Pros
    • Great overall performance
    Cons
    • Some faults

    Great spare wheels

    When I retired a few years ago I took my Snap-on Velcro with me. My 20 year old creeper's wheels are definitely dead. The new Snap-on Creeper is too expensive to work from home. Wheels I was able to change the old wheels in about 30 minutes. For a fraction of the cost, my Creeper is like new. Great wheels, almost the same as Snap-on. Let's see how long the list is. I guess longer than I need them.

    Pros
    • Nice packaging
    Cons
    • Interchangeable

    Fits my Duralast Creeper, but barely.

    I have a Duralast climber that I bought from Autozone a few years ago. I needed new wheels as the bearings were starting to fall apart and the undercarriage wasn't moving smoothly. I ordered them because they were the cheapest option and they looked just like the ones I had. Okay, they fit a square bottom hole and a slightly larger round top hole (e.g. vines). My duralast has round holes on the top and bottom of the creeper. So I put the washer (included) on the bottom instead of the top and…

    Pros
    • Delivery was very quick
    Cons
    • Crumpled

    Precise fit! fits slat rollers

    Wheel shafts and bearings have failed after years of owning Big Red vines. Frustrated and in need of fixing my daughter's car, I bought a new Creeper, a new lightweight design from Harbor Freight. It wasn't cheap and seemed solid enough. It ended up being junk plastic that barely lasted a year - the wheels broke and detached from the frame. I'm not that big of a guy. So I started searching the internet for ways to fix the wheels on my trusty old Big Red. I was surprised to find them - they are…

    Pros
    • Caster wheels provide 360 degree rotation for smooth and precise maneuverability
    Cons
    • Not bad, but...

    Fits the wheels on my Harbor Freight stool, but steel nuts would be better

    The wheels appear to be an exact replacement for the wheels on the stool I received from Harbor Freights. The main problem with wheels is that the nuts are aluminum. For example, if you hit an obstacle while rolling, the resistance would probably load the nut enough to slip it off. A steel nut would be much better. The original wheels also had aluminum nuts. I should mention the problem I had with my order, not the product itself. They only sent me one wheel. Revain responded very quickly and…

    Pros
    • Includes 2 swivel casters (1 pair) with chrome frames
    Cons
    • Expensive

    Fits my Duralast Creeper, but barely.

    I have Duralast vines which I purchased from Autozone a few years ago. The creepers didn't roll smoothly I ordered them because they were the cheapest option and they looked just like the ones I had. My Duralast has round holes on both the top and bottom of the creeper so I put the washer (included) on the bottom instead of the top and when I tightened the spare tire it still didn't seat correct. The square shape at the base of the wheel shaft was slightly larger than the round hole. So I…

    Pros
    • Each wheel has an 85lb capacity and is a 2.5" PVC wheel
    Cons
    • I am writing back
