Iain,Oz sent me a set of Tiger wheels from his WSN Tiger,the axle seems to attach to the control arms like the Asiatam axles.Their should be a set screw in the control arms that holds the axle into the arm.Also the two wheels close together seem to be attached with screws.Here are some pictures,I must admit I have been unable to separate the wheels,from the axles,Sax
