Best source for replacement wheels?
« on: December 29, 2013, 01:33:04 PM »
I am restoring a 22" kettle for a friend and am looking to replace the 6" wheels.  The grill is a 1979, but the wheels need not be period correct.  Simply looking for the best pricing for a new set of wheels/hubcaps.  I found them on Bar-B-Que.com for $6.99 each, but when I went to check out they wanted $36 for shipping.

In an ongoing relationship with a kettle named Bisbee.

Well..... The modern OTS wheels are period correct for a 1979 kettle. So it's a matter of who has the best price.

You may want to call Weber CS, or try ereplacementparts.com or appliancefactoryparts.com. I know some of the smaller hardware stores (Ace & True Value) in St. Louis carry wheels, as well.
