I run blue Associated TC3 alum. hexes on my new G Plus. They don't have the o ring setup to hold the pin. They are more like the stock plastic ones but once I tighten them rim on once they never come off. I think they press themselves on tight and with a medium tap on the axle I can get them loose. They seem to work very well and I'm happy with them. Plus I like the blue alum. over the red stuff but it is just preferance as I like blue better.
