How did they do? Did they look good against the Centro's and other 4.2s?

Will have mine ready for Wed

The b5's looked smooth and seemed to handle better in the corners. Mine comes in Tuesday so hopefully I can get some practice in this week.

So that's how you spell it! Thanks "Furniture"

You look better every week in that "worlds car", but go back to the replica body for club racing. It just seems more bad ass to get beat by it!

Has anyone tried what other aluminum hexes will work in the rear? 91442 looks quite narrow.

Looks like the C4 body fits perfect Frank!

the B4 hexes do not fit, They do not clamp down enough to stay on.

Are the hex wheels 12mm? Could other manufacture rims work like some 22 rims lol I suppose the offsets would be different...

Will the B5 rear arms fit the B4.2 if you use 3mm hingepins? They look a lot beefier.

Theoretically, any clamping hex that is from a car that uses the same diameter axle and offset should work. It might throw your colour scheme off though, for those of you that are conscious of that sort of thing

Plastic is much better and the molds for the B5 are brand new.

So it's a win / win for us.....
