Wild One wheels are the same but in white plastic, other wheels like Super Hornet and GH2 can be used too.You can use other Tamiya wheels if you use the std 5 stud wheel adapters for the rear

The Fox and Wild One wheels and tyres are the same, except some gold plating on the Fox version. As you would know these have four pins in the back side of the wheel and a unique driveplate. Buying aluminium wheels for the Fox is about the same price as the gold plated Tamiya ones, but boy do they look nice (and the plating doesn't fall off aluminium wheels). The Wild One's white rims are a touch cheaper, if you can find them.

You can use the long drive hex that comes with a Grasshopper or similar to use 12mm hex wheels on a Fox. I've used this in the past to fit Star Dish wheels and Square Spikes on the runner for a bit more traction (Super Astute wheels front and rear).

Driveplate and hex that will work on a Fox.

The later wheels such as the Super Hornet rims have reinforcing ridges on the inside.

These may foul the drive adapter for the rear wheel. This would then require removing some material from the adapter or removing the circular inner reinforcing ridge from the rear wheels.
