Phil,
I got a Troy Built 2450 PSI 2.5 GPM unit at lowes about 4 years ago.
It has a Honda 5.0 OHC engine and came with 4 tips + cleaner feed.
It has worked great around the house. Cleaning the driveway after winter, the
deck and furniture, vinyl sidiing etc.
I have never tried it on the 4's wire wheels but will give it a shot this
spring! That is a good idea.
It is a very compact unit.
1 accessory I did get was a sand blaster to be used as a water powered
blaster. That worked great on my brother's cast iron furniture we did 2
summers ago.
No home should be with out a power washer!
Bob
