For what it's worth I had some of the Schuey road tyres on my B4. They looked really sweet.
I took them off after less than 5 minutes which kinda gives away how impressed I was with 'em. If your mate wants rubber that'll last and last and last try ebay for some Tamiya High Density Spike tyres, the ones they put on the DF-03, DB-01 and DT-02 chassis. They are crap for racing but seem perfectly OK for bashing (which is what Tamiya designed them for I guess). I've put B4 kit tyres on one of my Tamiya's so it should work the other way round too.

they've had a few runs at regionals, but fine for bashing around roads and fields, or even for racing on high grip tracks like stotfold.
can't do a pick as my main PC died and i don;t have the camera software on my laptop

they are mini spike. not sure how many sets off the top of my head, probably around 6-7 available, but more once i have sorted out my recent tyres from the F2's etc.
they are mainly 4wd front and rear, as 2wd front don't wear a great deal. If your mate is bashing then he will mainly need rears for the wheel spin!
