 MPI, Maxx Products International, scroll to the bottom of this link. Seems like you see them at most LHS's. I can't think of who right now but there's another company that sells them too, same wheels in a different package.

Your can also search the internet for "DuBro Sports Wheels" or "DuBro Micro Sports Wheels". Many places have them.

 Yeah, DuBro is the other package I was thinking of.

 The Maxx and Dubro wheels are almost identical. From memory I think there is a very slight difference between the two with the molding around the hub area. If you compare them closely side by side I think one of them has a little more material widthwise across the hub. I believe it's the Maxx because that's the brand I have a couple sets of in my "inventory". This would make them a bit stronger for our use and also allow some leeway for drilling and adding a bushing if desired. Completely identical otherwise. Not that we can't use either of them, but I think these wheels are more intended for use on lightweight electric models.
