Yeah the fastrax ones do fit but they have a massive offset and also they are a bit fragile.
Can you get the HPI ones in 2wd front width?

You don't get the Black Ultras in thin 2wd front (26mm) only 30mm front and 35mm rear. But you do get the HPI Ultra 5 spoke whites in 26mm width Fronts and in 38mm rear..

Cool sounds like a good option. I used to run HPI spoked wheels on my Lazer Zx-R. Do you know what offset is on the wheels Kaylon?

I have converted mine to a front B4 hub axle and for the rear the conversion set to B4 axle; now I can mount the JConcepts Rulux wheels without any problems:thumbsup:

Could you not shave a bit off the wheels?

You can easy solve this by getting new wheel hex's.
I use the Alloy hex's made by HSP (Maverick) on most of my cars as they are cheap and hard wearing. Also they are 4mm wide so basically can distill almost any offset issue and you rarely get binding... HPI plastic E-Firestorm Hex's are also excellent...I'm using them on my X-Pro and LRP Blast BX atm. I will probably swap these eventually for the HSP alloy ones...
The Ansmann Hex's are quite narrow which does cause issues with binding on several types of wheels..

You'll also be able to run JC Racing RC10B2/3/4 five spokes:
