For most, the easiest way to purchase them is directly at 
http://www.reboxx.com/. Some of the most sophisticated hobby shops 
like Caboose Hobbies in Denver, and the Whistle Stop in Pasadena (CA) 
also carry them. If you are purchasing great numbers of them in one 
order, I would suspect that you might be able to negotiate a price 
break, but I do not know that for certain.

>Also, does Reboxx make a wheel tire that has a prototypical profile?

The tread profile for all the wheels is RP 25, and all are .088" 
wide. They do not make wheels to the exact P87 profile (.064" wide?). 
Reboxx is owned by the same person who owns Intermountain, and the 
Reboxx wheel quality control seems to be of the same very high order 
experienced with Reboxx.

I converted two pairs of Silver Streak metal trucks last night, with 
documented improvements from 5-7 rolls to 18-19.
