You are asking about tire fitment right? Losi tires will fit on associated wheels, it is easier if you trim the beam down a bit though since where the bead fits on AE wheels are a little narrower then losi wheels.

To clarify - you might find a slight change in offset between different wheel types. Within my little racing collective (Team Hopeless) we all run Bmaxes with different wheel types. I had a Hot Bodies D4 so mostly use Kyosho pattern (large hex) wheels. Mark uses Losi pattern (small hex front, pin rear) on his, and Johnny prefers Schumacher Revlites (pin all round). With the right fittings the Bmax can accommodate all three types fine.

They will, but the hex groove opn the Losi wheels is shallower than AE or JConcept wheels. i've found them more prone to stripping if you aren,t carefull. I use JConcept rulux wheels and they are great...
