Default Suggestions for roller wheels

I need a set of rollers that will fit over my Baer Pro+ brakes until my new wheels arrive. Do you guys have any cheap suggestions? I just need them so I can move the car around the shop.

Would the new Camaro wheels work? They seem pretty cheap on Craigslist and could hopefully sell them off after I get the other wheels.

alternative but not necessarily cheap depending what the wheels/tires goes for

another alternative is to buy these and weld the jack stand to them

you can go to Harbor Freight / northern, etcc and look for these type for $100 and weld jackstand to them so they dont slide..

This also depends on how much moving around you are referring to....

That's a great idea.

Car-part.com The GMC Terrains and Chevy Equinoxs have 17"x4.5" spares. I used car car-part.com to have a salvage yard near me that had 8 in stock for $35. They look like they are brand new.
