Tamiya doesn't have any tires that they call "LeMans tires." You should be able to true down the HBR foams and get them to fit under a GTP body. I've never tried it, though. The rubber tires rub a bit in the back. I run P2KPros in my F1 cars. Depending on the track, I usually gear somewhere between 5:1 and 6:1. The P2K2 shouldn't be more than a tooth away in gearing from the P2KPro. At least, that's what I see in sedan.
your correct pyscho, I meant the Indy tires. There's a guy at our track who's running these tires. They are larger than the normal tires but seem to have a better grip then the regular foam tires.

I run on asphalt, not treaded OK bite. Any suggestions on switching from rubber tires to foam tires? I prefer to stay with Tamiya tires
