Default Roller Wheels

Guys, can anyone tell me where I can a get a set if those flat, steel roller wheels that I've seen some of the guys use? Once I put the huge brakes on my car, I'll need a way to roll it around and move it until I order my wheels and they come in. I'm familiar with the wooden rollers, but they won't support the weight of the car, therefore...steel/metal is warranted. Thanks!

Guniwheels are the orange ones that all the cool kids are buying...https://www.guniwheel.com/shop-now

I scrounged around and bought 4 GM spares, the big forged aluminum ones that fit big brakes. I paid around $80 a piece.

The spare GTO's would be great except they are only 17". That's what's on the chassis now. But, once I put the brake rotors and calipers on, the GTO spares will no longer fit.

Gotcha. I'm not at the brake stage yet, but thought I might get by with just using the rotor and no caliper.

The other idea I have is to get some C6-7 take off wheels. I see them pop up on FB Marketplace for real cheap. You might want to look.
