Shay 2 , What size are the wheels you speak of? The Geese only had 24" rear wheels & 16" fronts, those are very small. I made my own wheels in the rear, one of which came out a bit out of round. I was going to change it till I saw a movie of # 2, (the one I approximated in my model), it sort of waddled down the track. That waddle & the fact that they ran with the hood open to help cool the motor is what gave them their name. Made me decide to leave it alone & let it waddle. If the plastic wheels you found are the right size, how about turning metal tires for them & using a rim wiper pick up?After I got mine done I did find some spoked wheels that could be bought separately that would work, I'll try to remember what they were, I did not get a set.
