How to replace the wheels on a chair - Dumb_Polack - 12-03-2018

Hi,

We acquired a very nice padded chair that has legs on the back and legs on the front that have wheels on them.  It is doing a number on the hardwood floors, so I'd like to replace the front ones with "extended legs" (not sure what they're called, but I want to pop of the wheels to extend the legs and then put those little fuzzy pads on the feet).  Of course the chair will need to remain level afterwards.

What are those "leg extender" things called and where can I buy them?  thanks!

Never seen those before.  That's a good idea.  
Yes

Didn't those show up one April first, recently?

Well, actually, I want to replace the wheels with standard legs, so those won't work
