pfft ............... you only figured that out now?

Took a pic of the box if it helps

Also these are the original front wheels from mine, has a wider flat bit around the edge of the wheel and doesn't use flanged bearings. Other wheels on the car and all my other B2/3 rims have 6 ribs..

Is there supposed to be a pic posted above?

There's a pic up there. So the 9480 wheels are eight rib and use plain bearings. The 9481 are the B3 with six ribs. That's the kind of info I was looking for. I hope it doesn't make mrlexan's life more difficult.

Thank you Bugle!

I see nothing above.

edit...redundant.

Are we maybe shooting our own foot off here?

The fronts look like the old TQ type judging by the bearing area...

I still can't see the pics.

Don't think so (shooting the foot). I don't think the fronts are correct as they are HUGE.... the are much larger than the ones I picked up at my LHS. Also the tires do not have proline molded into the sidewall. I honestly don't think they are correct.

Ah, ok must be 2.2's. I just got some 6878 4 rib tires from AE that have smooth sidewalls. I think they're from the B3 sport.

edit. redundant post.

Yes, I can see that one.... not the others (above).

I should check my B3 that is partially new built. I will pull them out of the box.

I am about 99% certain the frt wheels I bought at my LHS are 9480Y

those rims use the #6906 BALL BEARINGS and for b3, b2 fronts were different i believe.


RIMS-B3 Front 2.125"-yellow(2)
