This is confusing but I'll try to help.
The main thing to look for is the 17mm hub size, The standard Max sized wheel is 3.2". The Max sized tires have a 3.2" ID (Badlands), Imex and HPI Monster truck size tires are all 3.2". Imex also makes much larger tires but they are junk. The LRP,Rulux,JConcepts Truggy or 1/8 scale Truck wheels are all 3.7" and will need the appropiately sized tires as well. If confused with what is what just go the the Co's website and cross reference part #'s
Offset- Most companys offer standard(zero) and 1/2" offsets, personal preference for that,since you have a truggy the zero offset would most likely be best. Maybe speed tires you could go with the offset to handle better and be more stable ?
The Proline "VTR" tires and rims are all 4.0" and must be matched together also.
Hope this helps ?
