Default 6" wheels & brakes needed

Anyone know where I can buy 4.5" wheels and brakes? Looking for a set for an ESM B-25. UPDATE: Forget the 4.5" - I've given up on the B-25 after 9 months of crap from TBM.

I think I'll get the 114" WS Grumman F-7F Tigercat back on the building table. Looking for wheel / brake set for 6" tires.Thanks.

I tried to deal direct with Robarts but, after waiting since November with no communication, I moved on.yes, they were very expensive.

I've been looking at Intairco but have no experience with them. They have both air and electric in 4.5".

Steve...just talked two days ago with Robart about the brakes...they are good and in stock...just pricey. I have used Robart stuff for years... The tires on the Intairco site look two thin for me but thank you for the reference...being in canada...I would go with Robart...In a Year they will have electric brakes by the way.
