      I have ordered the finishing kit for my 8Aand am considering alternatives to Van's
      supplied Matco wheels andbrakes.  Are there opinions and user experiences
      out there that wouldfavor Matco vs Cleveland vs Grove, or are they all similar
      quality?

Re: Wheels and Brakes
      
      Hi Fred: my preference would be the Grove wheel with the ball bearings 
      for the nose gear, I got the standard Matco with my kit and then had it 
      retrofited with the ball bearings.  The high seal drag and timken 
      bearings in the matco wheel a to cause some problems when not adjusted 
      exactly right for preload, preload is not an issue with ball bearings 
      provided the internal spacer is correct dimension.
      My kit had cleveland main wheels and brakes which I am using with no 
      modification.
