There's no such thing as BJ4 wheels. BJ4s used Losi XX-4/XXX-4 wheels up front and B4 wheels on the rear.
I thought the 501x (which the Durga/Baldre is modeled after) was based off a BJ4-ish design in terms of geometry?
If the tires rub due to the side walls, probably can try shimming it ever so slightly. You'll lose a bit of threading on the nut, but if you use a Nylon nut, it might be enough to capture it.
There was a guy named Orange on another forum that modified his DF-03 to use Durga/Baldre axles and I remember him commenting that once that mod was done, he can now use "Losi" rims.
Losi BK2 rims are nearly identical to the B4's (which is what the BJ4 and the B44 uses). In fact, when I used to have a B4, I used Losi rims since the ones from Pro-line are craptacular.
Pro-line tires and plastics leaves more to be desired. Try the JConcept tires, they are wonderful. I hear good things about Panthers as well, going to try those on my 4wd vehicles next (the Raptors)...
