Cast iron has many of the same limitations as stone being stronger in compression than tension and cast iron wheels are still found in some applications where it would have replaced stone wheels.
Stone wheels were used on roller skates but I do not think they were as common as wooden roller skating wheels. Some gun carriages intended for fixed locations like ships or forts used stone wheels.
