ZoofenZoofen Replacement Luggage Wheel Repair Suitcase Bag Parts Spinner Wheels Casters for Travel Customs Box W044 (A Set 4PCS)

The media could not be loaded. My Wenger spinner suitcase was still in good shape except for one faulty wheel which made steering it like getting one of those wonky grocery carts. I love the 22.5” size of my suitcase that’s sadly no longer available; it’s been perfect for my 2-3 week trips to Switzerland. As I have to check my bag anyway because of my trekking poles I couldn't use the smaller check in sized bags, so I thought I’d give these replacement wheels a try. They arrived within a week, the package included 4 wheels, 4 matching inner plates, and screws. The quality of the wheels is great, seemingly better than what’s on newer suitcases. I’d picked up some tips from previous reviews (thanks, everyone!) and will add some of my own. Supplies needed: a good Phillips screwdriver, a good utility knife, a well-lit area, and a healthy dose of patience. Nice to have: a good counter to work on, clothespins/binder clips to hold back the lining, a strong flashlight, and a thin brush to clean adjusted holes. The inner plates that came with the wheels seemed too deep to work well with my suitcase so I decided to use the new wheels but use my old inner plates and the older slightly longer screws. I determined that what I then needed was for the old plate holes to match up with the new wheel “pegs” that would need to receive the screw. This took some carving of the inner plate with the utility knife to lengthen the holes so they’d match up with the “pegs” (see photo, yellow area indicates what I needed to carve). I carefully carved away on both sides of the inner plate so that the peg would fit securely in the correct area of the inner plate. When enlarging be careful to maintain an oblong shape or you’re going to need a washer under the screwhead which will negate the benefit of the longer screw. I did not need to make larger holes in the suitcase itself as some have reported, but did need to shave away some of the white corrugated plastic of the suitcase’s structure (see photo, again, yellow area was what was carved). I wasn’t too scared to do this when some of the areas looked like the original wheel installer had to do the same! This was the easy part. The hardest part that required the patience was working in small, dark quarters as I pushed the wheel pegs through the existing holes, matched up the inner plate, and then by feel, intuition, and prayer inserted the screw (doing the most difficult position to reach first) and tried to locate the receiving hole. After I located the first peg hole I worked it like changing a tire, tightening the screw just enough to hold, then going to the next screw, using the flashlight to locate the hole and orient myself as to where to place the screw. Once I could feel it take, I’d tighten it slightly then move on to the next, etc. After I knew all screws were indeed in the proper hole of the wheel peg I’d tighten the screws a bit, alternating screws until all were done. The fit of the wheels on the suitcase is perfect, they seem solidly made, and my favorite suitcase is ready for many more cobblestoned miles and memories. Next trip is 157 days away, but who’s counting?!Post trip update: Took my trusty Wenger suitcase with its new wheels for a month long trip through Switzerland. They worked beautifully and are ready for this year's trips.Two years and three European trips later they're still going strong!

Wheels were good but screws were too short. Found longer screws in my husband’s collection and we got it all fixed!

I recently purchased the Zoofen Replacement Luggage Wheel Repair Suitcase Bag Parts Spinner Wheels Casters for my Swiss Gear suitcase. The wheels on my suitcase had a lot of wear and tear and the wheels were no longer rotating due to rusting of the castor. I was hoping I was able replace them with these. Sadly, it did not fit. I contacted the seller to ask if they had it for my luggage providing them with the measurements, and they responded in a few hours. The customer service was amazing, but sadly they did not have the specific size I needed. Although I had to return the item, and did not have a chance to use the actual product for travel, I would give 5 stars for being responsive and trying to help me out. The idea is great and it is MUCH EASIER than changing the wheels itself.If you need your luggage wheels changed, try these. It's so so easy to install. I would say, even a child can do it. Now that I know I can purchase castor with the wheels attached, I will changing all my family's luggage with these, instead of just throwing them out, and purchasing new luggages. I couldn't be more pleased with the product. These wheels are an excellent solution for anyone needing to repair or upgrade their luggage.The only tip I would give to the seller would be to mention what specific luggages certain wheels fit for. I know there are thousands of luggages and sizes, it might be hard but it will help a buyer like myself be able to search for "Swiss gear carryon castor wheels replacement" instead of spending hours and hours looking at sizes.

First, the holes don't match the Samsonite holes so you need to try and expand the existing holes. Second, if you can muster through the headache of expanding the holes, the screws aren't long enough for the inside bracket and thickness of the suitcase shell/bottom reinforcing. Third, the inside bracket doesn't accommodate the reinforcing bars between the wheels. Shame on Samsonite for such a poor design in the first place.

My wife and I recently took a trip across a few states which required us to use an airplane. We have two Samsonite suite casses which has served us well over the years. However, the wheels never seem to stand up to rough surfaces like parking lots. All is well as long as you roll them over smooth surfaces at the airport. When we got home, I realized one of the wheels had come apart. So, I looked on Amazon for a replacement. These wheels fiit just like the original wheels. Being a novice at this sort of thing, I did not realize the wheels were specific to the location on the suitcase. The order came with four wheels so it was not a problem figuring out which wheel went to which location. Easy to install and just like the original wheel.

Shipping and delivery was quick. Measured the distance and size of the wheels as the rubber had come off of one wheel. Older suitcase but love it for its extra storage compartment for a suit, jacket or shirts on hangers. So sad that the bolts on the old wheels were off centered and the new are in a perfect square. Had to return to Amazon and buy a new case

I needed these because 2 weeks before going to Taiwan for over 2 weeks, I realized that the last time I took this suitcase on a vacation, the wheels started taking apart. And pulling this across Taiwanese streets with those old wheels wasn't going to go well. I could have gotten a new suitcase, but chose to try to replace these wheels. It worked great! The new ones had a bit of alignment issue with the existing holes, but enough fanagling and it worked. And the new wheels worked great across awful Taiwanese streets for 2 weeks.

They work great but were a little tricky putting them on.
