Those wheels fit the over-all image pretty well!

They sure would look good on the strikers grey alter ego too: the sonic fighter

Haha...I just threw in the wheels which are lying in my storage box. However, needed to use traxxas wide offset hex hub for the rears to have the appropriate width. I painted the body cos the white had already turned yellowish! It had been put away after running through mud for more than a decade.

I also have a striker project in the works. It was going well until I decided to make it an on road car, so I had to find all of the components to lower the rear end. In addition, I have a new CRP front arm kit that I have to get on the car. I just need to find some shorter front shocks because the CRP units are now too long when the car is lowered.

The body sets were pretty difficult to find, so the last time they were on ebay, I bought 2 sets (upper & lower chassis, decals, driver, etc.).
