I've only ran the CD/BD sleeve several years ago on my old original BD. But I do not think it was much stronger. It is too thin and lets the outdrives spread a little. The thick Tamiya aluminum sleeves do not let the outdrive spread at all.

Wear on the BD5 spool has been good so far. I do not have issues with them. But I am sure if you wreck front end, it might be easy to break because only the ring is supporting the cups. Buy many spares!
i might give it a try....n will try to source 415 sleeve which im not sure if it still available ..
