The Proline Masher 2000's would be great after reading the reviews but I cannot find wheels (Proline shows 2.8 wheels that fit the VXL but no 2.2's - other than the discs which my son does not want).

Any links or opinions are appreciated. Thanks.
The Stampede uses a 12mm hex.

I'm not too familiar with 10th scale stuff, but check out these wheels here...

The difference between the 2.8 and 2.2 is slight. 2.8 wheels are on it now, and are basically the same thing as a 2.2 wheel, just with less tire options. They both use a 12mm hex however.
