OwnMy 60mm x 17mm Luggage Suitcase Replacement Wheels, Rubber Swivel Caster Wheels Bearings Repair Kits, A Set of 2

First, let me extend a middle finger to my "luxury" luggage manufacturer for going cheap and using a riveted axle instead of a threaded one. After an hour of drills, Dremels, pliers, and pry bars, I finally got the old wheels off. If it wasn't for that, this would have been a very simple 5 minute project. The quality of the replacement wheels looks identical to the original, so I'm happy with that, although my original wheel did disintegrate, so maybe I won't be as happy a few years down the road. For now, I'm thrilled to have my roller bag rolling again, smooth and quiet as it was the day I bought it. I appreciated the 2 lengths of axle included, the shorter one fit perfectly. Great product, worked great with my bag.

I read on another review that somebody fit these wheels on his Apache 5800 tool case. He said that you only needed the wheels and had to use the original axles. Absolutly right! They work amazingly great and way better than the original wheel when my tool box was brand new!

Good

Replaced fixed wheels on carry-on luggage. It must have been caught on a conveyor belt at some point because one of the original wheels had a flat spot worn on it causing a noisy clicking sound when it was rolled. New wheels work fine and are very quiet, being rubber rather than hard plastic. Ease of install would have been a 5 but bag was not designed for replacing wheels. Housing for wheels were riveted so I had to drill them out and replace with screws, nylon washers and lock nuts. Axles had to be cut in place in order to remove, but once done new wheels went on easily. Only hiccup were the new wheel hubs were slightly narrower than the originals so I needed to add one more washer to each one to shim it out. It is best to remove one of the original wheels before ordering so you can get the exact measurements. The wheel diameter, wheel hub thickness, and the axle length.

The rubber tires on my Pelican 1550 had perished and cracked, the only fix being to replace both wheels entirely. You can get an OEM set from Pelican but these OwnMy equivalents are one third the price and of equal quality (the roller bearings even have the same part number). By 'fitting' I mean a bit of cutting, filing, drilling etc. and mixing the old and new parts to get the best result. If you're good with hand tools it's easy enough. Once done, these roll really well.
