When I measured the width with the B5M wheels, the front was 9.5mm wider than stock and the rear was 4.5mm wider than stock. At this point it doesn't pay for me to use them since I can't use my existing 12mm wheels/tires.
Sounds like you got the 9mm wide rear hexes. Exotek came out with 7mm wide which puts the width in spec. Not sure what wheels the wide hexes were for.
The front 12mm hexes are for kyosho wheels and the 9.5mm are for b44 wheels. B5 wheels won't work as you found out.
