They are Kyosho Inferno TR-15 wheels. No longer available in black, they are still available in yellow and white. Part numbers are yellow fronts W6061KY rears W6063KY, white fronts W6062 rears W6064 and are available to order from any Kyosho stockist.

If you want black wheels the HPI Super RS4 wheels http://www.hpiracing.com/piw4.php?part=3036 are the same size as buggy rears and can obviously be narrowed for fronts.

Thanks for the info.

Terry, how do you mean can be narrowed for the front, I am a bit new at this.

Also assume it is a straight swop with no mods to use the kyosho wheels on the tamiya

On the wheels are the two ribs to mount the tyre bead between. You cut the rib off the inner edge like in the picture below and mount the tyre up against the remaining inner rib.
