I don't have one here to look at. But the bearings be metric, will need either 10 or 12mm axle, and nothing imperial will fit.
So, this 60002RS:

You will need to buy or make a 10 or 12mm axle, (or bolt...) or get one from a chair in the rest of the world. And you will need to make spacers the correct length. Which is simple to do.

I chose language: ENGLISH. Obviously, because I am English, speak English, and live in England. We invented it.
So what does it do? It screws up all my typing and keeps on correcting everything into Americanese. Which plainly isn't English! So I have to scroll around the menus and languages to find British English! Why, English IS Englands language!
Installed it. It still thinks everything should be spelled wrong... So now its underlining about 1/3rd my words, and auto changing some and making it half Americanised.
Why isn't simple English, ENGLISH?
American English should be called American English! Surely that's logical and simple enough?
While they were at it, they confused everybody with all the place names (copied from guess where). And took all the imperial measurements. But did them wrong (or differently) to the English. A gallon, or a Pint in the US is smaller... Then they decided to go metric. But only part way. So my US built van has BOTH imperial and metric fasteners and bearings... What gives!
I have the opposite problem, it keeps trying to make my stuff into Brit - don't you folks know that the metal is Aluminum and there is no U in color? (among many other such things....)

Color and colour are different spellings of the same word. Color is the preferred spelling in American English, and colour is preferred in all other main varieties of English. The distinction extends to all derivatives of the word. Colored, coloring, colorer, colorful, and discolor are the U.S. spellings, and coloured, colouring, colourer, colourful, and discolour are preferred outside the U.S.

the other site - i cant figure out the shipping from there at all - if i am reading it correctly - its about 12 dollars for rim and 7 dollars for the tire - thats not bad - shipping cant figure it out
would these fit a Quickie chair - with the 5/16 size bearing etc, - it looks like a larger bolt to me
