Polish Outer Hub

[nigal]

This is our first year building a pinewood car. My Wolf cub and I have been collecting all your great tips for incorporation into his car. One question I have is, what do you do to prep the outer hub (tire?) beneath the axle head? I know that you file off the ridges beneath the axle head and polish this surface, but do you polish the tire in this area as well? ???If so, how is it accomplished?

Thanks in advance and sorry if this is a stupid question.
