oh, didn't realize it was brushless. The Jato wheels I think are smaller than what I have. I think they're considered 2.2 size rims. You'll probably need a bigger pinion gear.

i believe Jato wheels are 2.8's they would be a good replacement but tire wise i think the jato has ribbed fronts so you would need 4 rears from the jato.

yeh, the jato 2.8 rears should be pretty decent. they are still a bit smaller than stock tires, but if you up the pinion gear 2-3 teeth it should make up for that.
i put stampede 2.2 rear rims with proline masher 2000 tires on mine.

2.8's or 2.2's will work as long as they are the right offset and have 12mm hex,,,, Or i guess pin backed wheels will work too but id prefer to leave the hexes on. I tried my HPI 2.2's tonight and they dont fit, the wheel is not larg enough around and the offset is in to far for the fronts to fit so try and stick with 2.8s

An emaxx body is much to long for the volcano.
A body meant for the stampede should be close tho. much closer wheel base on the 2 trucks.

do you know if that bug body in your sig has the right wheelbase for a rustler? after i sell the volcano chassis i think im going to buy either the semi body or the bug body for the rustler.
