I LOVE the green ones! I think my mom's G5 is the least attractive of them all. I truly love the black and yellow one a few years back... |

I bought a Kirby DS80 earlier this year at a yard sale for $10.00. I took it back to work and reconditioned it and I have it on display in my Kirby office. Thought I would put up a photo... |

When I rebuilt it I put wide wheels on the front and also a wide wheel on the back, the side by the emptor has a skinny wheel so the emptor will still fit... |

What does it take to put wide wheels on? Any special hardware, other than longer screws? I've honestly never had Kirby wheels off. Are wide green wheels readily available?

Is there a place on the Internet to buy wide green wheels? |

I have never looked but I imagine they'd pop up on eBay from time to time. I'm almost certain I've seen them on there before. |

From the looks of it, goodvac only sells the thin wheels. If I cant find wide wheels I'll use those. |
