Rulux wheels
 
Does fit Jconcepts Rulux wheels on XX4? Don't know if they share same hex.

re relux wheels
 
losi wheels fit on a bj4/b33 so the jconcepts will fit on a losi

i'd borrow a wheel off someone with a b4 to check if i were you, my mate had both and i seen to remember that the hex's on the losi wheels are a lot shallower.

The J Concepts wheels WONT fit a Losi/X-Factory 4wd unless you change the hexs over to the Associated ones (which are thicker) - Losi _110 is correct the Losi wheels (and of course hex) are quite a bit shallower which makes the wheel bind when the nut is done up tight.

By fitting the Associated hex and wheels does it change the front track width at all?

Darren Boyle 31-12-2008 11:42 AM

It does make it a couple of mm wider but still within the BRCA width limit

3975dave 31-12-2008 11:50 AM

I wouldn't want to change the track really. I just liked the idea of deeper hexes. Seem to strip the right front a lot on my Durga due to the wheel nut loosening off a bit :cry:

but fitting the AE hex AND AE or Rulux wheels at the same time does not change the track as far as I am aware.

only using the AE deeper hex with the 'shallow' wheels makes the track wider

Put associated axles in ash? You must be able to fit them somehow :confused:

You need to use whole hub from asso then if I know well.

So it is possible gash :thumbsup:

its possible to graft a whole B4 to the front of a Losi 2WD car.

there might be a photo somewhere on here a few years ago with a Losi running B4 front wheel at first glace... closer inspection reveals a little more than the front wheels are AE
