It's me again

I was wondering if you guys can help me update a old an AMT Great Dane '40 ft trailer...

I mostly plan on shooting her basic white and steel I want to update the wheels to two hole steel wheels. I've seen resin wheels for tractors ,Do they make them for trailers?
I might even try my hand at adding air lines if it's no too hard to do.

It should be fairly straight forward to change the wheel center (hub) on a set of wheels designed for a drive axle, the set I list (www.sourkrautsmodeltrucks.com) from Plaskit are separate inner and outer. Drilling out the hub is very easy.
