The stockers aren't available yet, but you can put any 2.8 rims and tires on the volcano or Tsunami vehicles.
Like these.

Any style of 2.8 rims and tires will work.

The stockers aren't available period, from redcat or anywhere else. They might be in about 2 months or so, but right now they are not available. The Allstar rims with the Talon tires are exactly the same size as the volcano SV tire set up.

No the 2.8 rims are the same size as Volcano Rims, there for Any 2.8 rims will work. The tires are a different story, some are thinner some are thicker and wider. Most Jato tires are thinner, but the Tallon tires are fat like the Volcano tires, matter of fact they look almost identical to volcano tires and the rims are volcano size.

Basically they are the same tire and rims, just the design of the rim looks different. Here check it out all the 2.8 rims on this page will fit a volcano.

[link=http://www.allaboutfunhobbies.com/tireandwheelaccessories.htm]http://www.allaboutfunhobbies.com/tireandwheelaccessories.htm[/link]

And the 2.2 rims any of them will fit the redcat buggies
All the 1/8th scale rims will fit any of the redcat 1/8th scale trucks and buggies.

ok so the trx victory tires on the 2.8 pluto rims work? and you know, i want to make sure they are the exact same size or about a 1/2 inch bigger. i dont want to go smaller. is there any way you can take a pic of those tires next to the stock ones? of not, can you give me the dementions to the tires and rims so i could size then up myself?
