So i just drill holes and put the axel in and then the rims?
Would it turn or roll?
Any explanation would be very helpfull.

miasto models are the easiest to replace wheels
you can pull the wheel out with ur hand or use a flat head driver and pry it out from the spindle, behind the wheel hub
if you dont want to break anything unscrew the suspension and remove the spindle and wheel. then remove the wheel from the spindle

It's not the rims that broke on me the first time it was the hubs,they stayed in the wheels when I tugged them off!
