Wheels are easy, axles are the main problem.

Bone/meat axles that constantly wear because of friction and can't heal because no solid blood or nervous connection can be made to them.

there would be no way to get blood flow to the axel/wheel since it needs to move independently of the body

No animals evolved wheels because there isn't any pressure to adapt to an environment where wheels would make a positive difference in survival.

Anon, cars already have wheels and they're a product of evolution. What are you talking about?
