I buy my own 2" wheels from the hardware store but they don't fit, which I'm sure is done on purpose, I just use adhesive and now they are stuck, although not a good idea if you want to remove them later on.
The ones (stems) on the earth box are 3/8 diameter by 7/8 long.
I have found them on line but not at the lower cost of the earth box ones with a fast search.

They also sell them in 5/16 size and 7/16 and lord knows what stems which is what you got I bet.

This may help in your looking just something I found.
