Yes buddy, just pick up some touring car mini pins and mount them on your choice of rim. The work a treat! You can also get touring car rims that are off set a little to give you slightly wider wheel base.

Foams are great for parking lots. So are HPI X-pattern rubbers.

Hpi also makes some 26mm rally tires that work great for off-road duties. they fit on any 26mm TC wheel.

Not too sure about the cheapest.... I get my tires at Tower or Stormer hobbies. I guess ebay would be a good place for cheap tires.

I get mine from stormer, but most online stores are similar. You can always do the hong kong thing. Asian dealers are cheaper in price overall, but shipping is longer and customer service becomes a challenge when dealing with international sellers. If you get a bad $10 part... are you really going to ship it back half way around the world to get a refund?
