you're talking about 8" wheels on a 26" kettle?.. right?  We have a member here that can make custom ones but right now he is M.I.A.  But we're looking for him.

The "classic' white walls also came on early Performers (up through 2004) and earlier Genesis (and related era) grills. All the same 8" wheels.

part # 99252 or 63050 or 3621 should get you there.

I want a pair also.

Around 2005, depending on the model, is when the 8" wheel changed, and then changed again, and then more recently changed again.
It's the iconic symbol for the backyard. It's family/friends, food and fun. What more do you need to feel everything [is] going to be all right. As long as we can still have a BBQ in our backyard, the world seems a bit of a better place. At least for that moment. -reillyranch

Hmm, well yeah that's a different thing if you don't actually need the wheels.

Brian, back when Al first mentioned making 8" wheel inserts, I think you had asked him about access to his dataset? Or did you ever come up with one of your own? I'm under the impression you've made them for 6" wheels, but from wood.

I don't know if any of this helps Tionoel or others seeking new white inserts necessarily, but thought I'd ask.
