How to remove 1:6 scale die-cast motorcycle wheels?

Hello
I have NewRay 1:6 scale die-cast motorcycle. I like to remove the wheels but I have no ideas how to do it. The connectors are not regular bolts and nuts.
Thank you.

It’s hard to tell from the pics, but is that a hex nut on the last photo? Like you could use a smaller hex key to unscrew it?

It's not hex nut. I have tools for hex but it's just round shape. I just have never seen this kind of set up so I am struggling right now.

Hmmm. If it’s perfectly round, I’m at a loss as well.

Doesn't look removable, from what I can see.

I see. I think I can drill it and later replace this things with different steel rod....I am not sure. I need to figure it out...

Looking at mine (probably different product, but same sort of thing), this part is probably something that snapped together and is not meant to be taken apart. If you drill through it carefully, you may be able to remove it, but will need to replace it with something.
Perhaps do a search for customizing [whatever it is] on YouTube and see if they dealt with the same thing.

Thank you for the reply.
I searched on YouTube and Google about 1:6 scale bike wheels, and surprisingly I found nothing. I am still thinking whether I just mask them and paint, or remove completely and replace those steel rod to something.
The 2nd option is more trouble so I might just mask them and paint....

Yes, I will just paint without remove them.
Thank you.
