Default Low profile cut staggers

Does anyone run standard width cut staggers on their 2wd or is slim the only way to go?

New Yokomo header card design also.

Neil let us know how long the DLC coating lasts it is known to be prone to chipping of in car engines if it is not done right.

Price is the same as it has been from the start, they have most likely just received a new batch of kits from the factory.

I would not be surprised to see a kit with more plastics to make the YZ-2 more accessible to customers with lower budgets.

So what are the new bits?
I've known this was coming for a few months, but not sure what's new in the kit, if anything?

Can't find them under the YZ-2 section on teamyokomo.eu either. Maybe they are the same as the Arrowmax B-Max4 III parts?

Edit: Found them on fb, but seem to be out of stock:

out of curiosity, why would you go for brass v's steel if they all weigh the same? ...(12grams)

Brass were released by Yokomo Europe prior to the release of the steel versions. Brass are not available at YE anymore, so go for steel. Steel versions are released by Yokomo.
