Question Seaplanes and wheels

I'm considering setting up a business involving myself and a seaplane. So I have a few questions (If my topic isn't what this site is about, just ignore this message, and save yourself the speech) Do the Cessna 170 og 180 (seaplane versions) come with wheels under the floats? Like the 206? And are these wheels just for rolling out of the water and up on land, or is it possible to make a normal airport- (and even crosswind-) landing on these wheels? And are there brakes on these wheels? Can anyone tell me about other good seaplanes of this category? Preferably with wheels on floats.

Thanks!
