Wheels on skateboard can be as little as 50mm and go as big as 70mm (longboard wheels) and the softness rating verys. Smaller wheels are better for flip tricks, while bigger wheels are better for ramps and cursing . Harder wheels are better for tricks, while softer wheels are better for multi terrain cursing. What you want to do is figure out what you want to do on your skateboard (your skate style), from there you can choose the wheels that works best for you. Note for bigger wheels you are going to put risers on your board to prevent wheel bite.

Is skateboard a solid matter?
Yes, more or less. Except for any grease, it is a collection of solid matter. It is not a liquid nor a gas. The body is made out of wood, fiberglass, or some sort of composite material. The frames for the wheels are made out of aluminum or some alloy (metal). Then the wheels are made out of some sort of rubber or plastic. Then there are bearings, screws, and nuts, and those are made out of steel or other metal. So for the most part, a skateboard is made from solid matter.

What materials are skateboard trucks made from?
Long board wheels or any skateboard wheels are generally made of polyurethane, ore just urethane. Long board wheels are generally softer and larger than regular skateboard wheels. The softer the wheel, the smoother and quieter the ride is, but hard, smaller wheels are good for landing tricks, but go slower and bumpier. Since long boards are generally not used for flip tricks, they can focus on speed and ride quality.
