nope, they are proline masher 2000's. the M3 compound. they are almost as tall as stock tires, but super soft. they make the stock tires feel like circle rocks.

I tried the motor mount template today and found out that it doesn't print to the right scale. 95% percent makes it the correct scale on my printer. Definitely check to make sure that whatever you printed is the right scale before you start cutting anything.

dkchance, i dont know the name of the wheels. the rims are the same size as stock rusty or stampede rims with a 12mm hex. i have the 4 on the WK and 4 others, but i got them in trades. no markings on them either.

Those are the old stock front Stampede/Rustler wheels. If you boil them and clean them while they are still hot the chrome will come off leaving white. That white can be dyed if you want.

I used rear Stampede/Rustler wheels because they have a different offset. Double narrowed they bring the width from outside of wheel to outside of wheel down from 11.125 to 9.625.

as i understand, the m3 compound is softer then the m2. m2 could be ok, if you find them for cheap.
