Default Baby needs new shoes

So I bought a set of 3Racing 8 spoke rims off of eBay for what was supposed to be my TT-01 however despite being marked 1:10 scale when they arrived they were tiny....





more like 1:18

So rather than send them back I compared them to the ProPulse alloy rims and it was a perfect match, so I threw the PP slicks tires onto them and bingo:





Now I'm riding pretty:




They are a little narrower than the PP ones so the tires site a little higher on them, also they aren't as deep so you end up with more thread sticking out than with the stock ones but I think they look pretty sweet....

Q&C welcome.....

The tires on it are the slicks, the truck is running the brushless setup and geared for speed.

So have you figured out what they were meant for? They look like they would fit my 1/10th tamiya f1's.

Apparently they are for a 1:10 Tamiya M Chassis:
