I am a firm believer in using 1/8 scale parts to make a larger scale vehicle:

As for 24mm adapters - you can easily use 23mm adapters wrapped with aluminum tape to run 1/5 scale wheels:

I think using the d8t as a starting point could work well - it's easy to stretch the truggy platform. I'm partial to the Muggy/LST2 platform and its strength and durability as you can see by my threads - it has worked very well for me.

Keep us posted.
