The KX---F's use a 25mm axle size.
Your 500 uses 20mm axle sizes.
So if you machined the axle slots in the swing arm that could work for the rear.
The front setup may be a bit of a pain.
I'd just cut my spokes, order some black rims, and have them laced.
The four stroke engine: That's one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out.

Warp 9 makes a spacer to put kx450 rear wheel on a kx500.  Let me know if you are interested.  I could get you a price.

Warp 9 also makes rims for about 100 bucks each.
