I've had a few of these wheels (with gray, yellow and white hubs), and I'm
amazed at the demand for them stateside. Especially, as they have been in
quite a few sets. I have sold these and wheels for the 8880, and the older
ones consistently are in far more demand{1}. I'm not saying that these
wheels are common here, I'm just surprised at the demand for them: I think
currently have 12 (2 Gray, 6 Yellow and 4 White), all of which I am holding
for Jonathan Jones who uses then to built Case (JCB) type diggers - I think
JJ actually works for case.



As I have had a number of these, I continually get e-mail asking if I have
any more. Are these wheels really rare, or am I just lucky?

(...) For me personally it's not the fact that they are rare, but the fact that they are SOLID that puts them on the top of my wish list. I build large models that tend to weigh quite a lot, and none of the newer tires can hold the weight because (...)

Regarding this set for auction on eBay (URL) am interested in a split. If you look in this picture: (URL) the listing) you'll see a large wheel in the bottom right corner, partly buried under the track. There is another one in the lot, possibly (...)
