Yup, Johnny Lightning T-Jet bodies and wheels would be perfect. I have 6 bodies I bought some time ago, nice early 70s muscle cars, but they are much to shallow inside to accept this cars guts. The tires and wheels, however, are almost mandatory to get any kind of stick out of these little jewels. The cars are so light and powerful right out of the box that controlling them is impossible. I wish I could just go down to thje local HS and pick up some tires and rims, but, alas, there is only one hobby shop near here and they cater to the 1/12 scale guys. To them, HO is dead, and micros are just a fad. I don't want to order offline as I can't really judge size, materials, and suitability of the tires and rims. Sigh, I guess a road trip to Atlanta or Jacksonville is in order.
BTW, Bit and Zip tires and rims, including the way cool alloys, are way to big for these and would destroy the true HO scale.
