Definitely wheels. All that machinery with wheels for the belts, all transportation, toys, ... I can't fathom there being as many doors.

Unless I'm wooshed :D

    Depends on how broadly you define door. When you think about it, a transistor could be considered as a sort of door for electrons, for example, and there are 19 billion transistors in the processor of an iPhone

    A lot of transportation has an equivalent amount of doors, and there a lot of house, apartment buildings, offices... You use a lot more doors every day than you do wheels.

    Not even close; even an electric car has far more wheels than doors. Every rotating mechanism is made up of wheels, some geared others with groves for belts to run in.

    Even just considering the ones that you see, there are tires and hubs which (for a car) means there are 8 wheels and only 4 or 5 doors. You could count the bonnet (hood) as a door and make it 6.

    But there are hundreds of wheels, thousands in an ICE vehicle.
