I would love to see some super single wheel for the Tamiya Tractor Trucks rear axles!
Is there any chance this sort of wheels will be released?

Wheels like this I meen:

Might be able to stretch these over a pair of wheels, or you can cut-n-shut a set of some sprint car / street tires

The profile will not be too low?
Have contacted the guys at RC4WD about making somthing like this wheels.
Since Tamiya have no plans for them.

No the tires from the reefer will just look silly on the trucks rear axles.
Allready asked Joe about that.

Why not just get the super single wheels from EBH or Doc Gear that they make for the rear..

I used the stock ones.
Just shortened the inner rim a bit.
