Floyd County, Iowa
Don't know about replacement wheels, but if all your bins are the same diameter, why not make the sweep a little longer so that the wheel is running on the flat ribbon around the outside edge of the floor? If your other bins are wider, maybe put a track in this one for the sweep drive wheel to run on.
I would think that the ribs (appear to be, anyway) in the floor would hold the sweep from biting into the corn, as the drive wheel has to "climb" out of a ditch every few inches, only to fall into the next one.
Just a thought.
