Default Wheels
What's the difference between 51277 and the 51321?

Both are white rear wheels that will fit the DB01 and the TRF501X

Perhaps the difference is the header card? Maybe Tamiya don't want to have a header card that says TRF501X - when people want 'Durga' wheels.

who knows! maybe they are that crazy.

Is there a difference between the TRF 501X wheels and the black DB01 wheels? Besides the color?

I think the material is different. The DB01 suspension arms are also labelled to fit a TRF501X. Same geometry, different material (stiffness).

Have you got some of these white DB01 wheels to test? - I don't think there is any sense to change the material for a wheel - the kit wheels are the same as 501X wheels apart from the obvious, from what I can see.
