Are you talking about spindles, or axles? Spindles just have a smooth mounting point for ball or roller bearings, no problem with rust removal with a wire wheel. The bearing race does not turn on the spindle. Rear axles have a roller bearing surface ground onto the axle, and rust pits or deep grooves caused by an aggressive wire wheel will cause bearing roller wear. Please clarify your question.
