I think the 4wd rulux front wheels would fit the rb5 front hex axles? I may be wrong, I saw the guy on rc10 talk had used these parts and mounted hpi wheels on the front, not sure if the hexes are different sizes or what. From what I can tell I think they are 12 mm front hexes? I'm really not sure, I just had a hunch that it may work, please let me know if I am wrong.
I just did a little checking of my own since I was thinking the same thing. The B44 front wheels use a 9.5mm (3/8") hex so that's a no go. However, the Lazer ZX5 wheels would work but they may be a little wide when trying to stretch a 2wd front tire on.
