Stinger wheels

Anybody have any idea on how to remove the wheels from the stinger jeep?
They just seem to turn on the axle!
I`ve got one with a wheel snapped off so I`m going to replace the plastic rollers with some nice low profile rubber ones.
Thanks in advance :)

Cheers KW. I thought it wouldn`t be an easy job :)
Some bits are designed to never come off !
Bit like the panels on the rear of the Panther, they fall off by themselves or through playing, but god help you if you try to remove them on purpose :)

The only other way that I've had success removing wheels off the VAMPs and Stingers besides pulling like the dickens and hoping for the best, is if you have a soldering iron or hot glue gun and apply heat to the metal axle close to the wheel and then pull/scootch them off. Just be carefull not to melt things or burn yourself.
