ZX5 Wheels
 

I have standard ZX5 (not SP or FS/FS2) and am trying to get some new wheels (5026W and 5028W) but having trouble sourcing them - any alternatives that are available?

All the lazer wheels fit!! FS2 or otherwise.

for the readyset the standard wheels have been replaced with new ones.

K.W5203W
K.W5202W

Really? I was told something had changed (though it escapes me what) as there are different part numbers for the SP wheels that standard?

5026w/5028w for ZX5 and 5201w/5028w for SP which implied fronts were different?

Readyset wheels look like they might be the go though, odd they change part numbers for identical parts

Do they! In my experience I have a fs and a stock lazer the fs front wheels offset is to narrow and the ribs on the back wheels catch the hubs on the stock lazer I to have struggled to find stock lazer wheels myself but stock lazer wheels will bolt straight on to the fs unless all the sets of fs wheels i have are of somthing else because I did buy it secound hand but I doubt it

sp front wheels have a different of set to the rtr wheels only on the front

Depending on tires you may have to have to space the wheel out!!

But they do fit!!!

neil,they dont!!! lol
they rub on the hubs.

oh well live and learn thats why I am so crap lol

martin if your talking about those spoked wheels youve got they are not kyosho wheels,ill have a look at next bury for you mate.

Thats what it must be then tryed to fit some of the fs rims on and they just locked out the back diff I have got that motor bearing for you as well mate I will give it you next meet budy will make life a lot easier if I can fit fs wheels on the lazer tho

Hi, I have 3 cars :
1 ZX5 for my soon, 1 FS for me and 1 RB5 MCS (also for me).
I use the same rear wheels for all these cars.
On the front, i can use ZX5 wheels on the FS (but not in competition due to the higher larger) but it is not possible to use FS wheels on the ZX5 (interference with the steering ball end). So :
W5201 = Front FS wheel
W5202 = Real wheel
W5026 = Front ZX5 wheel
W5029 = Front RB5 wheel
For color, you can choose between W (white) or Y (yellow)

Yup front wheels are slightly different. Rear wheels tho are a direct fit with zero width difference. The alternative is an easy one, the annsman mad rat front and rear wheels are an exact match in width to the original zx5 wheels but do look much nicer. Also the fronts have hexes so are a direct fit with zero mods.

Ahhhhhh now that looks promising..... zero mods eh, I will have a look see and if order not fulfilled by Friday I'll re-order some of those, thank you

Zero Mods. Im using on my Lazer ZXR and Lazer ZX-S and the width is no different from the original wheels. Also the Rear ZX5 FS wheels also are a direct fit with zero width difference.:thumbsup:

For completeness in case anyone is searching the thread fOR the answer, the above wheels arrived and do fit standard ZX5, though i might still search out some Madrat wheels as they are a bit cheaper
