So our ball roller is made of 2 8" pneumatic wheels from sky way. I don't see why the 6's wouldn't work we just had 8's around and went with them. They are mounted on a 3/8ths steel shaft 6" off the ground to the center of the shaft. The 2" wide wheels have a 5" spacing inbetween them. They are then going to be driven by 2 fisher price motors. We had to go with a steel shaft as our kicker is mounted on the same shaft and was bending the aluminum. We don't meet tonight but if you would like I will post some pictures for you.
