Would like to use schumacher wheels if possible, has anyone done this ?
Cheers .

check team setups from EOS. they use the 12mm adapters due to the handout wheels at EOS

There is various offsets of hexes for the xb4 so I'm pretty sure you'll find the correct one.

Cheers guys , I've seen the various hexes just not sure which ones to go for .

[discothesnake]

Think you'll need to buy a few different ones and test til you get the correct offset

Sorry for being thick.... What is the offset??

It all depends on the wheels you're gonna use.

I'll get the different ones and see which work , got loads of 12mm wheels be nice to make use of them .

I run 22-4 offset wheels front and rear. I use +.75mm hexs on the front and +1.5mm on the rear. On the front you'll want to use a lower profile wheel nut because there's not a whole lot of thread left.

Cheers , I've a load of losi 22-4 wheels so that good to know .

Yes, the 22-4 low profile nut is perfect for this.

I run these 5mm wide 12mm hex for front: http://www.exotekracing.com/xb4-12mm-hex-front-2-5mm-wide/

And these 7mm wide 12mm hex for the rear: http://www.exotekracing.com/xb4-12mm-hex-rear-2-7mm-wide/

I run TLR 22-4 rims and have no complaints, no grip roll, understeer, overseer etc. The car is very nimble.

With these hexes does the car have the same width as std ?

From looking at the rear hex this looks to work out same width as std .
