Fast N Loud Ferrari F40

I just got my latest issue of Forza magazine where I found a photo of the Ferrari F40 that had been rebuilt on the Fast N Loud program on the Discovery channel. I’ve decided that I want to use my Tamiya kit to build my own version of the car. The Fast N Loud car features HRE wheels that are very similar in look to the Speedlines used in the Tamiya Ferrari F40 Competizione kit. I presume that the Competizione kit comes with slicks and I want to use road tires. Will the Tamiya F40 road tires fit one the Speedline wheels from the Competizione kit? An alternative would be Speedline wheels from one of the Fujimi kits. Would those wheels fit the Fujimi road tires as I also have the road version of the Fujimi F40? Are there any after market wheel/tire sets similar to the HRE or Speedline wheels I’m speaking of?

I appreciate any and all suggestions.

I to plan on doing this, just love how sinister a black F40 looks. These are Tamiya Road tires from F40 on wheels from the Tamiya Competizione, hope this helps

Thanks! That confirms that the rims will work with the diameter and I just have to narrow the rims a bit.
