PR front rims are the same width, rears are around 2mm wider.

That is what I do, I keep different width hexes in my box (and 14mm also) since I have such a mix of wheels. I think the front Schumacher rims are pretty close, but the rear are visibly narrower. The PR ones were wider but usable.

The amount of thread showing on the drive shaft sticking out of the wheel is very different, the actual difference in total width of the car isn't that much.

Bought some schumey pre glued rears for mine, lad borrowed them and did a check on the difference, was only a couple of mm narrower at most. Managed to get a 10 pack of rears now, so panic over!

Agreed, This thread and the FB page have been very helpfull.

Mines been strong, I hit a corner weight Holding the track down at the BWOC last weekend and it didn't break, believe me they break cars

Yeah they do ross , i also hit a corner weight at the BWOC ( even before the race had started!! ) resulted in a broken shock shaft , exspected something to break , nothing wrong with the car atall

But as everyone has said bent is a top man , always willing to help either on here or facebook .
This is all because someone broke theyre car , and are blaiming the car , but sometimes its the nut holding the wheel on!

On the strength of this car...recently I was racing indoors on low grip carpet and towards the end of the qualifying (4th round) the rear minipin tyres were pretty much bold. I applied the brakes at the end of the straight and the car went straight on into the wall! It actually flipped up because I went into the corner at the end of the straight too fast. I was expecting some damage, but nothing not even a mark on it apart from the wing looks a little worse for wear! amazing.
