Are the rear wheels just cheap plastic? I need something that will hold up well on pavement.

The wheels are plastic but they are VERY sturdy. We load our cart to the max with beach gear and have no problems with the wheels. The cart is well designed and constructed and we are well pleased with our purchase.

Yes, they are plastic. Not cheap plastic but this is def made for the beach.

The wheels are plastic but they seem to be made of a sturdy material. The wheels on the back are wide, designed for beach use, they are def not flimsy. We loaded the cart heavy and had no problems. I just showed it to my sister in-law and she loves it. She is planning to purchase one for her next family vacation as well.

Other ATBCs on the beach were a lot less sturdy, but I didn't see anyone having problems. We did not think the wheels were of a lesser quality, nor did we incur any problem.

I'm no metal professional, but I believe they are made of steel. They are very thin but have not even succumbed to my terribly paved driveway yet. No dents, nothing. I've lifted my Z3 multiple times so far and no small rocks have caused any problems.I don't believe you have anything to worry about when it comes to the durability of the wheels.

The wheels are thin but sturdy. They are made of rubber. So far, they still roll straight, and that's after 4 months of heavy use.

All wheels are hard plastic, but are well constructed. My daughter has had her big wheel for over two years now without anything breaking. The only downside to plastic wheels is the wheel will spin on certain surfaces and not grip to go.

I believe they are heavy plastic. Wheels are large and easy to go through grass and small gravel driveways.

I suspect that the large rear wheels will last several years with normal usage on a paved surface. The wheel wear will vary based on the load(weight) carried by the product. The front wheels appear to be more fragile and may not last as long as the rear wheels under these conditions. That said, this product works very well and is worth the price.

The wheels are Ok on pavement and smooth surfaces. They do stick bit sometime and I don't think this would be the stroller to take out on trail.

The back wheel are rubber so it will not do anything and front wheels are plastic but do not damage the floors. Our floors are wood and this thing is fantastic. Our daughter is six month old and goes everywhere. From all we bought so far that is the best

If they were the same kind of wheel ,But if not you would need to replace the wheels as well as the axle or make a new bottom plate ,would not be worth it ,this unit is not going to hold up to a lot of use a lot of plastic ,I would not buy it not worth the money they are asking ,I would not pay over 50.00 bucks for it, I bought one after 2 days it started falling apart I sent it back ,the lock supports are plastic as well they broke ,

The wheels seem to be of sturdy hard plastic. I've drug it down steps fully loaded and it was fine.

It's definitely something you'll have to build up. Also, with softer wheels, such as the ones that come standard on these, it'll be more difficult on asphalt or uneven surfaces. If you have any bike paths, I would suggest starting out there to build up your ankle muscles. I noticed my legs bowing at first so I would say these have lower support than some other brands. Hope that helps!

Yes I purchased 3 pair for myself, wife and daughter. Wheels have grooves to handle sidewalk. No issues so far

Rubber around the plastic wheels and they are good quality. So far we found no issue with it.

The tires are shiny like plastic, and quite hard, but I think they're actually rubber. My fingernails can make a slight indentation, which they won't do on plastic. Also, they don't seem to skid on hard floors.

I got one about two months ago and it has five spoke plastic wheels with a slightly softer "plastic" tires. I was expecting the spoke wheel with rubber tires but these do seem pretty durable.

The wheels are plastic or hard smooth rubber but seemed to hold fine. My father uses this mostly on linoleum and carpet.
