Jon,
I have to agree with William M. Gilroy's post. Don't get anything under
a 5hp (220V) 30 gal tank compressor. As for wheels, I don't think I've
ever seen a vertical compressor on wheels. I have a Craftsman 5hp 30gal
oil lubed compressor that I paid about $400 for. It has wheels on it.
Good luck.
John
