sideways movement is pretty common with plastic hex's so nothing worry about, you can shim them if you wish, but usually the best way to fit wheels on plastic hex's i find is always to do them up tight, then loosen them half a turn. fitting wheel-nuts with the dimpled flange helps keep it in place if you are worried about it coming off during a run.
A problem i found though is with regards the steering, the arms seem to go over to the left on full lock, on right turns they go half-way, it seems the pivotball (if you fit the shouldered one the manual suggests) catches on the bar that connects the steering linkage, it may be you have the same problem somewhere & something is catching stopping the action.
