Default BVM wheel question?

Does anyone know what size the reamer is for BVM's sport wheels (3/16 axle diameter nominal)?

Thanks

Matt. I always use a .187 reamer and ifit comes up still tight I spin the axel with some 400 grit to polish it some.

Yea. Get one thst is 3/16 cause it could take a little more
Than the nominal size anyway. Than if it
Is to tight you can polish out the bushing or
Sand spin the axel some. Good lube is the trick
With these things.
