I'm ready to purchase aluminum or steel wheels & I'm not sure if there are any opinions as to which is best. Please let me know if LGB, or other manufacturers are same; or if there are any I should stay away from.
Thanks
Bachmann metal wheels do me just fine. They are fairly inexpensive and do not rust when left outside. I have never had a bad set (as some other members have).
Joe, I also have been using Bachmann wheels for years. Used them for freight cars and no problems for me either.
Bob, I have also used LGB BB wheels where electric pick up was desired, more pricy of course.
I've been using B-mann wheels, purchased second hand when someone upgraded to "better" wheel set's. I'm quite happy with them.
My exception's were purchasing metal wheel set's from HLW to upgrade my HLW rolling stock that came with plastic wheels & some LGB BB wheel set's to provide track power to a Chicken Dance box car.
