Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

I know where I could find wheels, but wondered if anybody had any particular recommendation for wheels suitable for bungs.

Skate wheels are often used through axles and, I believe, cut in half on supermoto footpegs (that's to protect the track, not crashing, though.)
In those circumstances, you're fairly unlikely to damage the bike.
However, as Marjay suggests, just bung them on in random places and you may well find you end up doing more damage than you save.
