I switched to them too and they feel pretty good on my 418 with aluminum Samix chassis.

As for the stiffer rear end with 2014 motor mount, I think that's aimed more towards asphalt than carpet. I also felt the BD7 2013 was smoother than the 2014 indoors. The worlds is asphalt so we know the direction that the major contenders should take.
