Default Mini Recon Wheels

Hey guys i got a Mini Recon a few weeks ago and its great. Very durable, i had a mini t before this and that just seemed like something was always wrong but that's not the case with the mini recon. After a few time out side with it and some cartwheels i noticed that the rear wheels had really taken a beating and were just about shattered, but luckily i had some mini t wheels around and threw them on.
The real question i have is does anyone know if and how the mini lst wheels and tires would fit on the mini recon. I have searched and couldnt find much about it. Also has anyone else seen the performance packs and happen to know what could be in them.

thanks

Default recon

planning on getting the mini recon with some Christmas money.....glad to hear that you are having good luck with it.......doesn't the size of it really limit it to the road....why not some sort of wheels off of the rc18....one of them should have decent tires for road bashing

I'm about to put up a huge package of wheels from my rc18 to sell if you are interested. Will be up soon.

(Also have some upgraded rollers with rpm plastic, 3racing aluminum and MIP steel drivetrain parts.)

No its not just limited to the road if you have short grass it will do just fine, and in gravel its pretty good, some stones will up set it but not too bad. Its gone just about everywhere ive wanted it to go.

Yeah the only real down fall i could find were the wheels and tires, they dont much grip but that was also a lot of fun playing around inside. The wheels though didnt hold up once i got it out side, looking at them they look like they were shattered, but they still worked. And to use the mini t wheels i had to modify the wheel pins a little bit, they were a little to long, and you need 4 rear wheels.

Also i was wondering if anyone knew if parts from rc18's will interchange, like shocks or other parts. Also i have read that the pro pulses are the same, so do those parts fit?
thanks
