I changed the fork of my bike months ago but now i'm wondering if the wheel axle is sitting right..
What do you think ? The wheel seems to be sitting on the QR axle instead of the bigger one, no ?

The dropout is sitting (at least in the second photo, can’t tell in the first as it’s underexposed) on the threaded hollow axle, the QR skewer “axle” runs through the inside of that threaded one.
If it helps, pull the QR skewer out and see if the wheel sits ok.
That is sitting correctly. The QR skewer is 4 or 5mm and the axle it slides through is 9mm. The 9mm axle is sitting correctly in the dropouts and the larger bits are just the stuff for holding bearings together etc.

Eventually yes. Also if you don’t ride this.
