Try and get the truck racing wheels+tyres they have a larger diameter so you get a higher top speed as compaired to the touring car wheels.

A two speed with a taller 2nd gear would make it even better

Can you still use the sports line rims with the truck tires? Are you talking about the semi truck tires?

Yes the semi truck tyres

check the pic

left to right,

FG bigfoot tyres: rim dia 114mm, tyre dia 200mm, tread width 100mm

FG semi racing slicks: rim dia 110mm, tyre dia 140mm: Rear tyre tread width 80mm, front tyre width 62mm. These wheels are the same as the marder race wheels with the rear having an extention ring fitted to make them wider.

FG Marder Race tyres same as the front wheels above with a tyre dia of 170mm.

FG 1/5 touring car: wheel dia 94mm, tyre dia 120mm, tread width 64mm

these are aprox as some have more wear than others.
