Default X Spede tamiya truck wheels

I'm not sure whether this is the right spot to post this but I have just purchased these wheels for my Knight hauler front ones only and I was wondering if anybody else has these as I have a few question about them.

1. Just wondering whether they fit on the normal axles you get with the kit.

2. Has somebody got a picture of the back of these rims.

3. Has the rear ones got normal hex nuts fitting.

3. Are they polished aluminium with chrome look a like or just a flat colour.

I have purchased these off ebay and I keep emailing the person about them but not having much luck of him answering my questions as he has told me he don't know much about them. Just wondering if somebody could help because this is the first time I have purchased any upgrades for my truck.

They are just a raw aluminum finish, slightly polished. So shiny but not chrome. They are designed to bolt directly to the stock setup, the front use bearing mount for the crossbeam and the rears have the 12mm hex.

Thanks Dan,

I just received my front rims today they are ok but I'm not happy because they don't match the ones in the picture which I'm annoyed of because they would of suited my truck because they are similar to the acoa rims you get on freightliners. I don't know where to go from here now with them. I have givin a negative feed back on eBay on the person that are selling them.

Does anybody know of where I can get the ones that are in the pictures above? If they do please let me know.

I have found the right ones I was looking for they are a different brand they call billet wheels and have received my front ones last week just waiting on the rear ones now.

Just a question for you all just wondering these aluminium wheels are you able to get them chromed or not because they are a flat ally and I think they would look better chromed and i'm thinking about doing it to my wheels is this possible?
