Wow that looks awesome! What wheels are those? I'm guessing they would also fit on a Sand Scorcher? What size tires will they take?

Thanks! They are old school wheels called Bru-Lines. I can find the measurements for you...

For some reason it makes me think of a Lotus Seven.

That looks really cool! I tried tires similar to those with my OptiMutt car, did a few spins up and down the street...they spun too much and didn't grip as much as I'd hoped. Probably better for another surface, maybe.
