The only ones I know of are strc. They come in 2 widths, a wider front for offset arms and wheels, and a rear narrower offset. I had to buy 2 sets for equal length arms.

They come in green, red, blue, and most likely black and silver.

I bought these to run rpm widemaxx 3.2 wheels for a tmaxx with stampede 2.8 tires stretched over.

What car is this for?

Just and idea for my slash cause I want to put 14mm hex Hoons on it
 
Hot racing makes a 17mm hex conversion that I'm currently running. Gives you a lot more options for wheel selection.
 
Will the Arrma 14mm hex fit on a slash?
Because I tried to put a different Arrma one on my slash and the hole wasn’t big enough

See if you can find the dimensions for the Slash axle, then match that to one of the Arrma ones. From what i have found, the Slash axle is 5MM, and the Arrma is 6MM. You might be better of with the 12MM to 14MM adapters. I have never tried an Arrma hex on a Slash. I just stick with 12MM hex wheels, since there are way more options. For street tires, look at the Pro-Line street fighter, or the many options from Duratrax, and there are many other street options. For that matter, what about the tires from the Team Associated Apex 2 Hoonitruck? https://www.associatedelectrics.com/teamassociated/cars_and_trucks/Apex2/Hoonitruck_RTR/
 
The 1/10 touring tires are to small that’s why I wanted to fit the 1/7 or 1/8 Dboot Hoons on it
The 14MM DBoots Hoons are closer to 1/10TH scale than 1/8TH or 1/7TH. Yes, Arrma list the Vendetta and Infraction mega as 1/8TH scale, but, compare them to the specs for the Arrma Senton and the Arrma Granite. The "1/8TH" scale ones for the Vendetta are smaller than the Senton's Fortress SC. These are the specs for the 14MM Hoons for the Vendetta:
Inner Wheel bead diameter: 2.68" (68mm)
Outer Wheel bead diameter: 2.4" (61mm)
Width: 1.38" (35mm)
Wheel hex size:14mm
Overall diameter: 3.35" (85mm)

and the specs for the Fortress SC:
Wheel inner bead diameter: 3.0" (76mm)
Wheel outer bead diameter: 2.2" (56mm)
Width: 1.7" (42mm)
Wheel hex size: 14mm
Overall diameter: 4.1" (104mm)

And the 17MM ones for the 6S Infraction are smaller than the 3S Granite tires.
DBoots Fortress MT specs:
Wheel bead diameter: 2.8" (72mm)
Width: 2.1" (53mm)
Wheel hex size: 14mm
Overall diameter: 5.0" (128mm)

DBoots Hoons 17MM specs:
Inner Wheel bead diameter: 3.27" (83mm)
Outer Wheel bead diameter: 2.95" (75mm)
Width: 1.69" (43mm)
Wheel hex size: 17mm
Overall diameter: 3.94" (100mm)

You need the 14MM adapter for the Vendetta wheels and tires, and the 17MM hex for the 6S Infraction Hoons, and they would still be no bigger than stock Slash tires, since they are pretty much the same size as the Senton's DBoots Fortress SC.

As for 1/10TH touring tires, why would you use them? Use 1/8TH scale, 12MM speed run tires and wheels, such as the ones from Duratrax, like the Bandito, or Pro-Line Street Fighter, since they are a 2.8 on road tire, and would be roughly the same size as the stock Slash tires, and you wouldnt need adapters for them.
