Question:
I had the same problem as the guy above, one set of tires with lugs and none on the back. I figured out how to get them off, but what do I replace them with?? I cannot find new wheels with no lugs.

Expert Reply:
I may have an option for you, but there are not replacement wheels available like yours that do not use lug nuts.
If your current wheels are in good shape then the most cost effective option will be reusing them.
If they are damaged then only option would be checking to see if there is a standard hub compatible with your spindle. What you will need to do is look for the bearing numbers stamped on the bearings of the hub as shown in the included picture of the # L44649.
If the bearings are worn to the point that you cannot read the bearing numbers then you will need to use digital calipers # PTW80157 to precisely measure your spindle in the location shown in the included diagram.
With the bearing combination I would be happy to check if there is a standard hub available that will fit your spindle.
