Schumacher cut staggered ribs

Post by askbob »

Anyone know for sure if these will fit standard B4 front wheels? http://www.ebay.com/itm/400226195282?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

Also looking for a US seller. All I can find is out of the U.K.

A Main Hobbies sells them but I thought they were for thin wheels. Aren't standard B4 wheels all wide widths?

lots of people in belgium use them on wide rims and only glue the tire on the outside bead of the rim.
Depending on how they want the grip they will put the foam in, or take it back out, and stretch the tire over the outer rib or leave it sitting on the middle section of the rim

Thanks Phin, don't know why those didn't show up in my search. So is the regular front B4 wheel considered 'wide'?

Sorry I linked the staggered not the cut staggered. A Main sells both though.

Most people out our club run staggers on thin rims (standard rims but glued as said above) and cut staggers glued normally. I think the b4 rim is the norm by todays standards but wide compared to the old days!
I like cut staggers as most people run mini pins all round at club, i just find them to aggressive. Cut staggers work brilliantly and i run them on my WOIN RC10, 22 and XXCR.
