Answers.Text: @LC1983 In order to keep the wheel in the correct position in relation to the wheel arch you would need a pivot point that is directly underneath the center of the arch and just about in between the (visible part) of the arched piece and the 2 curved slopes on the inside of the arch. That is INSIDE the actual hub of the wheel itself. There is simply no room for any Lego piece to go there. The geometry of small Lego wheels is not quite the same as that on real cars. Bigger Lego wheels (and suspension parts) do better in that regard.

Comments.Text: I haven't tried this, but you could potentially replace the axle pin with a [technic half pin](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=4274) and some thick wire (~3.18mm ⌀) bent into the right shape. This _may_ allow the wheels to rotate still
