That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

I was hoping I could disassemble it further, but I don't know how.
Can someone teach me how to disassemble the wheels? or maybe another way to remove the gunk from between the wheels so it can turn smoothly again.

I would try soap and water and a brush. The rubber itself looks to be in rough shape so if you care enough to clean them, I would just replace them. You can even upgrade the wheels while you're at it.
Happens a lot on the wheels on my studio lights, invariably full of hair - a bit fire singes it back off straight away then lube them works a treat
Soak them in a Plastic bag with white vinegar, that will dissolve anything in there, spray some lubricant in after and they'll be like new.
That's assuming you want to clean them. If you just want to have them rolling good, I would just spray in the lubricant first.
Soak them in a Plastic bag with white vinegar
How long should I do this?
When I clean the minerals out of a showerhead, I'll leave it in a bag of vinegar overnight or 8 hours over the day and agitate the bag every few hours(just a shake or two).
I don't really have it down to an exact science, I just use vinegar to clean non-precious metals and plastics because I know white vinegar dissolves dirt and grime well enough and dries without a smell.
Since the vinegar is going to get inside the wheel around the axles, I would probably dry them in white rice afterward after shaking off as much vinegar as possible, since you can do the same thing, just leave it in a bag of white rice overnight, the white rice draws out moisture really well.
Otherwise, I feel like some of the vinegar will still be trapped between the axle and plastic casing for a pretty long time and could poorly interact with any lubricant you spray in there.
