Default DEX210 wheels on B5M

Is there a chance of using DEX210 wheels on a B5M?

Ive fitted durango hexs on the rear of my b5m. You need to put a spacer between the hub and the hex but its possible.

The front is different however as the b5m comes with an integral axle and 12mm hex. There is an option part for swapping to a seperate axle and hex so you could potentially use that i guess.

Together with a friend of mine we conjured up this solution:



They are 3D printed inserts that use DEX210 imperial size axles, but I use them with TRF wheels on DEX210 metric size axles. I also measured it for you with DEX210 rims for you using wide mounted Schumacher Minispikes:





As you can see it's a close call, but it should work just fine. Also, I want to note my left wheel is showing a bit of excessive negative camber, which is causing the car to be a bit wider than it should be.

The insert set included pieces to use 2, 3 and 4mm trailing just like the standard wheel axle setup and it costs EU8.50 (+/-GBP6.65). PM me if you need any more info Also, if you really require a car that's safely within the regulations, I am considering to make one-piece steering arms (no inserts), so I can make the car safely within the 250mm for all wheel and tire combinations.
