Lionshead has discontinued a lot of wheel styles, including the Wildcat. The Osprey # LH27VR, Eagle # LH47VR, and Liger # LH49FR are the only styles they have available.

If you aren't particularly attached to Lionshead and plan to replace all of your wheels, I would switch brands and get a wheel like the # AX02560655BML.
