As some of the people who have assembled O scale Intermountain car
kits, their wheelsets were made of plastic (delrin most likely).

I have a few of these cars and would like to replace the original
plastic wheelsets with metal
wheels.

Does anybody could recommend nice wheelsets for replacement? I have
seen PD Hobby carrying metal wheels for Intermountain at $7.95 but
have no experience with their product.

Thanks in advance for sharing your opinions and knowledge.

Try North West Short Lines. (nswl.com)

AFAIK, Intermountain no Longer makes O scale, and their wheels are all
either HO or N.

O scale blows get some real trains.

Don't talk to me, those of you who must need to be slammed in the
forehead with a maul before you'll GET IT that Wikipedia is a
time-wasting, totality of CRAP...don't talk to me, don't keep bleating
like naifs, that we should somehow waste MORE of our lives writing a
variorum text that would be put up on that site.

It is a WASTE OF TIME.

Stop acting like an infant and grow up Steve, you are a troll and we
all know it.
