Here's my dilema. I have a 400EX and a Blaster. I can't stand the blaster, but it has brand new RAZR's on the stock wheels. My EX rear tires are shot. The problem is this... the wheels are a different size on the blaster so the tires won't fit my EX's wheels. And the blaster's wheels won't bolt up to the EX's hubs.

Does anyone know if blaster hubs will fit a stock EX axle?
Are the splines the same?

I know I can find out by trying it, but I just figured I would ask while I was looking around on here. Thanks guys.

the splines on a 400EX axle, and a blaster axle are the same...

I believe the blaster / banshee splines are the same,

and I believe the 250R / 400EX splines are the same,

and I believe that 250R hubs won't fit on a banshee..

So I'm pretty sure that they aren't going to fit :D

off and i had a pair of blaster hubs out there and the fit just fine the only thing is that you might have to add a washer.

Like Bean said, I am pretty sure the 250r and 400ex splines are different ;)

The blaster hubs will match up but you'll loose about 1.5 or 2 inches of width in the rear end..because the blaster hubs are small..I had a buddy than ran blaster hubs on his 426ex for a full race season..

Very odd. The Blaster hubs do infact fit the EX axle, but the EX hubs do not fit the Blaster Axle. The Blaster hubs must be slightly larger than the EX huba so they will fit the EX axle, but the EX hubs are just small enough to not allow them to go onto the Blaster Axle.

I'll be running my RAZR's now until I get new Radials for my White Brothers on my EX.

Thanks for the input.
