Reminded me of a song...
Wheels! a glint of steel and a flash of light!
from: Hell Bent For Leather - Judas Priest

I have a ton of 'em, but they're in England. You really don't want one, anyway. They're not really stronger than ali, and they weigh a ton, and don't brake at all. Arseicles.

...BUT if they go out of true they can be a pain in the @ss to keep true since steel has a "memory".
