Does anyone know what tires are in the very first picture of this thread? Page 1. First post? They look like some sort of realistic radial.

Bodies:
Today I masked off my new HPI BMW M3 GT body. I messed up making holes, 10mm off, and had to redo 4 holes. Ugh. Compared to the Tamiya body, this one is a little wider, and those 24mm wide wheels i have, are looking pretty inset. Color scheme, I am thinking a 2 tone metallic blue with white hood, roof and trunk panels with black stripes that follow the hood,roof, and trunk contours. I don't know what it will turn out like, but will probably start painting tomorrow. More to come.
