Opttico Office Chair Caster Replacement Wheels are the answer to your problems if you need replacement wheels that will hold heavy weights, super easy to roll, very smooth and easy to install. These wheels are a set of 5 wheels, 3 inches diameter each. The wheels are a clear super heavy resin type material and metal frame. They are only about an inch wide including the side brackets. The actual wheel is only about 3/4 inch wide. These will not leave black marks on your floors, they do move super easy on thicker carpet since they are not a smaller diameter wheel. They move very smoothly and easy too. I have my office chair on some fairly plush carpet and moving it has always been a problem, it just didn’t roll like I would have liked. I am now glad the old wheels started to break. These are so much better than the ones that came on my chair. The little spindle that fits up in the chair is a standard size, perfect fit. These do not say in the ad or on the box the weight recommendations these should handle. We looked these over very close and compared to other OEM chair wheels these do appear to be better made, (or better than any we had here we looked at) and we normally buy bigger heavier chairs. No tools required probably. You just pull your old wheels out, put these on and then turn chair over and put a little weight on it to snap them in place. I did my chair myself and my wheels had been in there and stuck really tight from a few years of use. I did use a pair of channel locks to pull the old wheels out. I don’t think a stronger man or younger person would probably have had to use them though. Very easy to replace in my opinion.
