It is confusing, I had to read it twice before I picked that out of the product description.

There is a post on Facebook Mugen Seiki Co., Ltd that talks about the wheels. It's translated. There is a top list of wheels that work as is and then a bottom list that needs 2.5mm 'processing'. I don't know what that means. Separate hex's like Xray? But standard AE/Xray/Yok are on the 'needs processing' list. Anybody know what that means? I tried to paste it in here..

Basically if your wheel has a deep hex you'll need to "process" it lol

Im going to say No. But Kinda.

The front end geometry of the car is VERY similar to the TLR, i would even say there is even a chance of some parts compatibility between the 22 5.0 and the MSB1. I have not had my hands on the car yet to see for certain sure. I might bug Tim Long and see if he will let me put some calipers on his PreProd.

The back half of the car though, is all AEB6/YokYZ. So there isnt anyway you are fitting that transmission onto a TLR 22 based chassis.


NOW...that being said...i think it would be pretty cool if Vision did a "VB6-22" chassis, just as a "what if" experiment, with tooling for a TLR front half, and a B6 back half, and slapped the them together, and then compared that set up to the MSB1, back to back, to see how close they are on track, and if the design concept of the MSB1 is as it appears.

Well, i apologize for my previous statement on wheel compatibility, that was NOT what i was told previously when i asked that same question.

That really sucks that the inner hub needs to be clearanced like that. Literally no one is going to do that. Unless they have their own 3 axis mill, which i am betting 99.9% of people dont.

I would just use a lathe, but you could accomplish the same with a dremmel

Mugen is more proud of their stuff than XRAY, I didn't think that was possible lol

yeah the springs are crazy. i was going through the list and thought parts were pretty reasonable and then saw the springs! at least you get 2 arms in a pack vs xray's 1 arm..

As long as it's just the springs, I have springs covered lol

If spares are reasonably priced and available it'll be a good replacement for my 22 5.0
