Are they still using plastic wheels? I've seen a couple reviews that say they have switched to rubber?

The wheels are indeed plastic. My grandson doesn't play with it because it seems to have a hard time staying on track. Make me an offer and pay shipping and I'll send it to you!

I'm beginning to wonder whether some of these have different kinds of tires from other ones. I mean, the one we got, the red one, has nice rubber-like tires that work perfectly on pavement or indoors, but other people are saying theirs had hard plastic tires. I've read that some people have a blue colored unit...maybe that is the one with the hard tires. I'm not sure we're talking about the same things here.

They are hard plastic like the classic big wheels. My daughterr has had this since she was 4 and at 8 still rides it (adjustable seat). I swear by radio flyer....scooter, wagon, etc.

Mine has steel wheels & pneumatic tires. I purchased mine in the summer of 2012; at that time there were many complaints about the old wheels. Makita changed to the steel wheels at some point.

I believe them to be rubber. They have a little flex to them unlike hard plastic ones.

They are rubber wheels. Good quality for the price. My son loves them. They were a birthday gift for him last year.

Bought these for my grandsons, I believe the rear wheels are hard plastic. They are the hit of the neighborhood.

The one I ordered in June had the rubber wheels. I don't think they would last too long with plastic wheels. I will be looking to purchase 2 more soon, but now am concerned about purchasing a swivel car.

The wheels are plastic that you paint black. I usually do a mix of flat black and a dark grey, so that they look more like rubber.

The wheels are made of plastic. I am very impressed with how durable this toy fire engine is . We have had one since March and have never had a problem with it.

They are rubber. They are like bike tires, you even have to pump them up every now and then. I can tell you as a mother of 5, this is the BEST stroller we have ever owned!

The wheels (inner white rims) on the one we got are plastic. I think the wheels may have changed (from plastic to steel) since we got ours in September. The inner wheel cap on our wagon is red... it is now pictured on Amazon as black. Either way.. the tires are really nice! Very sturdy large air tires They easily pull/ride over any surface. Great wagon!

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.

It is hard to tell what the wheels are made of, "rubbery plastic " I would say. they are small. We love it for our Laminate floor. I also love that if comes apart easily for a hand held vacuum. Very happy with it!
