The stock axles work great with Jacos and the new Parma Blackhawks, as well as the kit wheel nuts. Sounds like you are overtightening the wheel nuts. I tighten them until the wheels don't spin very long (around 1-2 seconds when you flick the wheel with your finger) then back them off 1/8 to 1/4 turn. The wheels will then spin very freely. The ends of the axles will not stick out of the wheel nut.
