I think you're going to have a problem with the width. The on-road trucks use the same arms as the standard cars, which make the width 400mm. Although the trucks are wider than the standard cars, they get their extra width from the offset of the rims, not wider arms. You said you have a sportline, so it would be fairly cheap to get new arms to bring the width down to fit the truck body. Personally, I would narrow it down. You don't have much of a selection of bodies with the wide set-up. If you go 400mm, you can use the trucks or the 20 or so other bodies that will fit. Good luck.

thanx for the replyes guys... yea im scratching my head what way to go with the body... might end up getting a new porcshe body as well the wide one... it just looks like a killer
the current body needs lot fixing but hopefully the fiber glass sticks to it...

I've been doing a semi build. Just finished but am waiting for a price on wheels and tires now. I have been going by a german parts list and have had to order a few times when getting the wrong number of things needed and such. I love the semi. Anyone that sees it starts drooling

post some pics i need to get a tire for my rim too but i contacted a canadain store and they said my wheels are some bigger 1/6 truck ones... im confused though since i got a set of plastic fg wheels and the tires would fit them perfectly.... anyone know about ABC harm alloy wheels? i got the ones that is alloy but has the inner wheel part plastic... do the regular fg slicks fit them or do i have 2 sets of some bigger wheels? and i don't feel like spending the money on a pair of tires if i cant use them... don't i wish i had hobby stores closeby lol... could go and walk in with the wheel and get fitting ones
