they are plastic. One of the smaller wheels bent and broke off within the first month. I still use it, however, when full it wants to fall down

Definitely plastic with an awful smell from the manufacturing process. It's taken a few months of sitting in the garage to let the odor die down. Now I have it indoors. Would prefer rubber as opposed to the plastic.

The wheels are plastic, but it seemed to go very well in the house. Haven't tried it outside on concrete yet.

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!

The wheels are made of hard plastic covered with some sort of rubber. They are very sturdy and compatible with any surface in my home. Rolls easily on carpet, tile and hardwood. The only thing I am very disappointed with is the brackets that hold up the bar which broke after about six months of use. I asked about replacements and never got an answer.

Wheels are rubberized. And I am very happy with it. Helps me a lot with my shopping.

the top is hard plastic but the wheels MIGHT be rubber which I think is latex or a form of latex. You should ask the manufacturer.

The tires are not plastic. They are a hard rubber. Bike taught my daughter how to ride without training wheel!! Would buy it again.

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

I believe they are plastic as they are solid, not soft. We used it inside until summer. After it was used outside the wheels were roughed up and I didn't want it to scratch up my floors. It's been a great bike though.

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!

They are rubber hard not soft. It is a wonderful buggy, very well built and a favorite of our granddaughter. I highly recommend it!

The one I got 4 years ago had two hard plastic rear wheels and a rubberized front wheel. The one I got 6 months ago had two hard plastic rear wheels and a hard plastic front wheel. They cheapened the design. That's the only conclusion I can make.

They are hard plastic. Cant say yet how they hold up outside since we bought this around Christmastime and any one in the midwest will tell you there was no playing outside here yet! They've been using these type wheels on Little Tikes wagons and play cars for years and seem to hold up ok. I can say that we really like this wagon.

Plastic- if they were rubber it would be AWESOME! We thought about upgrading the tires for next summer.

These wheels are made of an EVA foam. They have the same appearance as a rubber wheel but have greater durability.

Thanks but am getting conflicting answers about the wheels being metal vs plastic. One person said they are not metal, but plastic with a rubber belt turning them.

Depends on the use and terrain. Smooth hard surface go plastic. Rougher softer surfaces go air filled rubber.
