hi starting out and would be grateful for advice on what hardness of wheel

john april · Apr 21, 2020

is that durometers?

"IF" that is in durometer numbers go with the 75. I think "most" of the 12" contact wheels in use will be around the 75 durometer mark.

Might wanna research that. Looks like the bore is 1 inch. That’s really big if u ask me. Most are 1/2”

it is 1 inch will take 1 x ⅜ bearing so I will use a ⅜ th bolt , do guys run them normally without bearings?

I think they are normally mounted on a 1/2" bolt with larger bearings. I found an ebay listing with the same description as you posted, and I don't think the one I looked at was made to accept bearings.
