In some examples, an aircraft wheel assembly includes an axle, a bearing assembly, and a hub defining a bearing bore. The bearing bore may be configured such that the dynamic radial and axial thrust bearing reactions between the axle and the hub results in a first reaction force FR applied to the hub, the first reaction force FR having a radial component, and a second reaction force FN applied to the hub, the second reaction force FN having both a radial and an axial component.
