    Matching tires, rims and connectors

    If you’re buying pieces to build something with wheels, it’s important to make sure your rims and tires will fit together. 
     
    Here’s a handy guide showing which connectors, rims and tires go together. You can look up any piece by its number on  Pick a Brick.  Some pieces may go out of stock at times, but there are plenty of other options to try. 

    Each wheel needs to be connected to the body of a set with the right parts. This ensures that the wheel moves freely and can also support the movement of the attached build. 

    Below are some examples of compatible wheels and tires for each connector type:

    Otherwise, axles can move freely through a hole meant for a snap, like 28809:Piece with horizontal hole
