That is possible. They converted a truck in an episode of "Trucks!" on Horsepower TV and test drove it with those threads. They even highway tested it too. It'll be too complicated with too many small parts to go bad on an xmod though.

Mattracks is the namebrand and model train wheels would work for the road wheels and rubber tracks off a 1:35th scale tank kit.

Ehhhh... Its possible in all, and if you've got the motive to do it, then do it. IMO, tracks are a little over rated. I think there's one on the AM forum with 2 tracks...
