Oh yeah
Just saying they would come supplied with the screws, hopefully they aren't the pointy type, they should only be supplied if they're going into an indent or softer material.

I thank you all for the information that you have given, which is very helpful. Regarding the screws, there were none supplied with the metal road wheels. All that was in the package were the wheels, suspension arms and center caps.That was all there is. I re-used the screws and tightened one up too much. It snapped inside the metal suspension arm. I bought the set from Toucan Hobby. I sent them a message and asked for a replacement Axel screw, as well as another Metal suspension arm. They got back to me and a replacement for each with shipping is $8.00 USD. I will purchase heavier springs, as suggested, once I find them.
