They make Bowties in 30 series that are about the same height..3.89" You can even buy them premounted now: http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXUHV4&P=7

Nice tires. I assume they work on a 12mm hex?

Absolutely. The 30 Series Torque rear wheels would be what you want.

Does anyone know the inner diameter of these ofna 17mm adpaters? They look close. 1/8 scale buggy wheels might be fun for bashing, but they might be so tall that the chassis won't slap on hard landings. In that case you might break more parts. Chassis slap saves things like shock shafts and hubs on awkward landings.

But chassis slap ruins electronics and is not good on Lipo's. IMO

There may be some truth to your statement, but every 10 scale electric car I've seen relies on chassis slap on the big jumps and sometimes even the smaller ones if its a low grip track. By the time you set your "stock" car up to never slap the springs and damping are so stiff it will handle badly in a race situation. For that matter even the big 1/8 buggys and truggys slap a lot.
