Default ANYBODY WANNA HELP ME OUT?

i have a old school pan car. 1/10th scale and im trying to set it up to a brushless drag car. it has a set of nice polished aluminum wheels on it. 2 inch wheels standard up front but the ones on the rear are really..really wide. does anyone know where i could get some wide and really thick tire tread for these rear wheels? im not sure what brand the rims are either. thanks

YOU ONLY NEED TWO TOOLS IN LIFE:
WD-40 AND DUCT TAPE.
IF IT DOESN'T MOVE AND SHOULD, USE THE WD-40. IF IT SHOULDN'T MOVE=AND DOES, USE THE DUCT TAPE.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

i like that

clean your other rims as clean as you can which should be smooth and glue these tires on and then true them and your all set
