I contacted MPI and they said this line of wheels has been discontinued
I haven’t found any distributors who have them in stock
I don’t know when they were discontinued

Central Hobbies has Tettra wheels. May want to look at them to see if the will work for you.

I think the MPI wheels are thinner than the Tettra or F3AUnlimited wheels (apart from also having an aluminum hub and brass axle bushings). It's too bad they've been discontinued, they were a good wheel.

The Flywheelz in the following link look like a good alternative to the Maxx wheels, but the 2-2.5" wheels haven't been in stock for months.

Default MPI 2.5 wheels with tires

I have at least two sets of these 2.5 inch wheels I do not plan to use. The tire is foam with a hard rubber middle that I don't like on asphalt runways. I would send them to you for the postage only. They have been used but are in great shape. I also have extra axel inserts for just this wheel. I don't have a clue how to ship or reimburse postage.Any Ideas?
