Not usually. You'd come cheaper getting some fishing line instead. But if you really want the original wires, please send a request to salex(at)vkb-sim.pro, they'll provide an invoice (most probably just with shipping).
Don't forget to wear eye protection when dealing with springs!

I use two #50's on each axis with a 200mm extension.
If you break the wire puller tool that comes with the base (they do eventually wear out, especially with the heavier springs) the exact replacements can be found in fishing tackle - I think they are called wire traces & are used for pike fishing. I bought a bundle, kept the 100mm ones & gave the longer ones to some friends who fish. You just need to snip off the swivel. Cost works out to maybe 10 pence each!

Re: Spring extractor tool
Exactly! And I might add - to avoid premature damage pull the wire a bit sideways before releasing the spring hook on the post; this way the wire won't get caught between the hook and the post when you pull it out.
