wheels for rb5

[ongbenghui]

hi,

Wanna find out what are the wheels that fit RB5. Does Losi wheels fit ?

I noticed there is a conversion kit for proline wheels. Will it work for Losi wheels ?

The Conversion should work with JConcepts, Associated, Losi and the TRF 501/DB-01 style Tamiya wheels.

Without Conversion you can use the Kyosho ones, of course, and the Hot Bodies wheels that I use on my Lazer, too. (See avatar, available in yellow and white)

There is no off the shelf conversion for the front end of the RB5 (but how many 2wd fronts do you actually need!!!!). The "Proline" rear axle conversion is worth it's price only if you have lots of Losi / AE fitting rears already. I do have it on all my cars but if I had of already owned less sets of rear wheels then I'd have stayed with the Kyosho wheels as I think they are far better quality than any other on the market at the moment!!!

hi guys.. so im new to 1/10. i have no wheels/tyres at the moment.

am i right in thinking that the only other manufacturer to fit the kyosho rb5 hex fitament is Hotbodies only for the rear? (as at the moment hotbodies dnt have a 2wd car to make front narrow wheels)

cheers

Not sure if the Hot Bodies ones are 100% exactly the same offset wise. I know some people are using them so they must "fit" but are they correct?

The Kyosho wheels are very good quality and not too expensive either.
