Default 40 series wheels on a gs storm truggy

I have a gs storm unlimited/sut that I'd like to put 40 series tires under. I can get a set of 40 series beadlocks with brand new big jo tires for 50 bucks. So needless to say I'm wanting to buy them. but they do me no good If I don't have the right adapters. Does anyone even make adapters?

if you want to put 40 series on a truggy the only possible realible solution that comes to my mind, is to use 23mm adapter with 40 series wheels, you can get the 23mm dynamite adapters for the lst that will work on your truggy.

Ok, here's what I'm having to deal with. My truggy uses these spacers in order to fit MT tires on it. When I pull them off to put yhe 40 series adapter on the axles, i think it won't be wide enough to clear the tires.
