So what HEX (brand) works with B4.1 to use Losi 22 wheels?

Once converted, is it the same width as B4 wheels?

Anyone know if the front hex conversion is a perfect match with 22 wheels?

Rear hex works with losi wheels, provided the nut fits into the wheel indent. The jconcept mono for 22 fits the nut/driver fine, but the losi brand wheel has too small of an indent for an 11/32 nut. Same offset on the mono for associated or 22, visually comparing with one on each side.

The 22 front doesn't work with the associated/proline/jconcepts hex. The 22 hex is smaller.

Thanks!!

Let me recap:

Putting 22 fronts on a B4 aint happening.

And for rear, just need the AE plastic hex (ASC9883 - Team Associated Hex Wheel Adapter Set (SC10RS) ). And for 22 rear rims on a B4, just make sure it's not the Losi brand wheel and we're all good.

Sound about right?

jConcepts and proline makes a hex that will work for the rear.
Not sure about the fronts

Exactly right on the fronts - its a no go.

For rear ASC 7497 is actually correct width for B4.1 the ones you listed for the SC10RS are actually a little wider.

For rear wheels any B4, 22 , or RB5 wheels will work even losi branded some wrenches might not fit in there, but my Losi nut driver worked fine

My FT AE Nut Driver (11/32, green handle) fits into the TLR 22 wheel just fine. I recently switched from the standard wheel nut to the JC serrated nuts, they work like a charm. I found that the standard nuts will sometimes loosen after a run (since the TLR wheel barely leaves enough threads on the axle for the nylon to engage fully), I did not want to risk losing a wheel during a race.

I also have AE nut drivers. Cool. So no issues fitting into the Losi brand wheels eh?

Also, have a part number on the JC Serrated Nuts you are using?

Sounds like lots are using 22 wheels here.

Thanks!!

Try to find some Street Weapon hexes. Good luck though.

This is a hard question because people are running lots of different things.

My suggestion would be to get 4 pairs,
Red Fronts
Orange Fronts
White Rears
Yellow Rears

Some people may run silver fronts or pink rears but these are rates that are quite different from what people ran while using AE springs and the above springs will get you dialed in at 99% of tracks around the US.
