Hey, I was wondering if they make wider rims and tires for hpi nitro rs4(not rtr3). Also I was wondering what company makes this body for my 200mm HPI NITRO RS4.

you can get up to 30mm rear wheels by jaco and foruni. Ad for the body - kina looks like a serpent body. but that would be 235mm. ill do some research for the body - lemmi know if u need a link to those tires.
 
You can also go to HPIs site, click on buy HPI, then tires, then at the very bottom of that page you will see discontinued tires, click on that. They have discontinued the 31mm rims and tires and have them discounted. They still seem to have a decent selection though.

This beautiful Group C racer is designed to fit standard 1:10 "wide" onroad chassis. It provides the perfect balance of stability and speed, and is molded from lightweight crystal clear lexan. It is the #1 pick of many of the top onroad drivers around the world! Includes side dams.

It says 1:10 scale but I think you will NEED thos wider rims.
Click here, then go Products then click on On-Road.
 
yokomo makes that body at 200mm. you could get it at speedtechrc.com. They make that and also a GTP body. Both handle sik like SARS.

Also, this body is made for use with standard touring wheels wider tires in the rear will not be necessary, but if you do, the yoks are good so are the nitro shoes. The rears are usually a little wider than the front 26mm Fr. and 30mm Rear.

I want wider wheels to flush with the body, just like the one in the picture. Some kind of wheels like the hpi proceed, and the serpents have.
 
Thanks NCNitro,you dont know how many times I've went in there and never noticed the 31mm wheels and tires.
 
Integy still make some 31mm tire and rim if your looking for rubber. If it was me, I would run some Yokomo foams(32mm) and not have to worry about the clearance of the inner rim and the rear knuckle. I don't think you will have a problem since it does not have pivot ball suspension or anything that will get in the tires way. Racer Choice and Frewer make lola body for 200mm touring cars, you can purchase them from tower if your local hobby shop does not carry them.

Speedster, if you want the tire to flush with the body, get some rims that have a lot of offset, about 3mm+. Yokomo rear 31mm tires haave a lot of off set on them, you should try them.
