spooky

i have found that the best combo for the f103 is the tamiya a compound tires they last very long and wear very well as for foams try the hbr mediums in the front and the hbr softs in the rear (tamiya of course) you can get them through tower

spooky> you'd need pan car hubs and a shortened rear axle on the back, and also pan car carriers and axles on the front. i've seen it done, but it wasn't worth the guy's effort, in my opinion.
