Default e-firestorm wheels and tyres

Does anyone know the best option for new wheels and tyres for the e-firestorm?

I am racing on grass tracks and want to put some spikes on the truck.

I run a T4, which is similar to the e-Firestome, on grass tracks and there are a few tyres that I have found that work well.

Firstly the fronts:

Good grass covering - Schumacher Mini Spikes (blue for wet and yellow for dry)

Dryish grass with bare soil - Proline Hole-Shots (very dry) or Proline Bowties (dry)

Rears:

Good grass covering - Schumacher Vee-2 yellow (dry), Vee-4 blue (wet)

Dryish grass with bare soil - Proline Lugnuts, Step Pins both M3 compound (dry)
or
Proline Snake Eyes, M3 compound (very dry)

All of these tyres are standard 2.2 inch 1/10th truck tyres but you will need wheels on top (make sure you drill through inside of the rim so they are not sealed. As for inserts I only use a soft foam as you get a better contact area.

Hope this helps.
