    Need to find new wheels for Honda GCV160 walk behind mower.

    I need new wheels for my old mower, but none of the listings I've seen online mention my model number. They all look like the right wheels, but for all I know the size could be just marginally larger. Are the newer model parts generally backwards compatible?
