Default B3, B4 wheels

Hi guys, is there any difference between the wheels used on the old B3 and the B4? offset, size, fitment ect.

I've just started racing again after many years out of the loop and dusted off my old B3.
Now I'm looking at getting an X6 squared and need to know if the vast amount of wheels and tyres I have will fit it.

Thanks.

Hey,

I think (not sure) that the rear wheels of a B3 will fit. I know the fronts will fit.

But B3 wheel on a B4 will leave the car too wide to be legal to race.

I always thought they were exactly the same, but it as so long ago that I had a B3 that im not 100% sure.

The B3 rear-wheels have a bigger off-set, so make it wider and does't fit the box. The front wheels will fit.

I thought they all fitted, but were all the wrong offset!
Either way, the rubber on the old tyres will likely have perished so won't provide constant grip/feel anyway.
