Question Wheels X4 to X2

What width are the standard front wheels on the X2, traditional 2WD slim wheels or wider 4WD front wheels?

If the X2 uses slim wheels do the X4 wheels fit without fouling? I assume they share the same 12mm hex size.

They are the width of the 4wd wheel and share the 12mm hex, however the shape is different. The 4wd wheel curve in ) and will bind on the steering hub where the 2wd front curve out (.

The 4wd wheel would narrow the overall front width by about 6-8mm on the X2.

Summary - don't use the 4wd front wheel on the 2wd X2 buggy
