I've heard complaints about wheels

How difficult to swap out and does that affect warranty?

They’re free when the squadron buys them.

See, this whole "your unit buys you cool stuff that you get to keep" is a foreign concept to me. Headsets, cockpit bags, Garmin watches.... Never heard of it.

I've heard from others that it does not affect the warranty. It was easy, just need a socket wrench and some M8 nylon washers for spacers.

For the B&R 22”: use these wheels (70x24) but keep the bearings and spacers from the OEM wheels. Takes 5 mins max.

What are you getting that will replace the bearings? Bearings went out on mine, so I need to replace them too.

Just to be clear, you’re asking if swapping wheels on a roller bag will void the warranty?
