Made from steel rod and are bent and spot welded by automatic machinery on production lines.
As an aside... They're pretty expensive. I know there's a company in the USA that makes lots of money refurbishing damaged ones, like those run over by a truck, etc. I've seen a couple that they've repaired, and you'd never know they'd been damaged. It's only the company's label that lets you know they're not brand new.

Here is a site listing designs and materials:

I think they take large homemade BBQ's and cut the half oil drum off of the back and then make one wheel wonky.
