Try a toy store or skateboard shop and buy TechDecks, or maybe a loonie store will have some generic version. These are mini 'finger" boards you can play with, the wheel and truck assembly has tiny screws with working nuts, and you get a mini wrench to change them. i think they are 1.4.mm. I've used em for lots of modelling needs! And they is cheap like Borscht!
