2.2 truck wheels with full offset (like many of the HPI wheels for the MT2, Wheely King, and Firestorm) are what I use, along with 2.2 truck tires (Holeshots for the track, Road Rages for street, and HPU Yokohomga Geolandars for all terrain). If your track has a looser surface, you might have better luck with Bow Ties.

Body choices are a bit off, standard 1/10 bodies tend to be a bit long, and IMO the stock body just doesn't look right. Mine is currently running a cut-up Crowd Pleaser for the Nitro Rustler (it was laying around my garage).

For bodies I've been cutting off the back end of 10th scale trucks right behind the shock tower bulges. The one that fit best was my old XXX-T body. The old style one, not the MF2.

I tried to make the stock body fit, and it would barely, but the steering servo and lipo battery were pretty exposed.

I keep thinking there is some odd sized mini-monster truck that may work, but it's hard to find body measurements except for on towerhobbies.com.
