why dont you use panther komodos?
they look great on a pede, a similar size to the ls10.

EDIT: oops. saw you got rims..... actidentally skipped page two. :oops:

I used to have Komodo's on a FLM Stampede I owned. They are very low profile, actually closer to 4.5" rather than 5". With using them, You should only need some wheels like this and your 17mm adapters you have:

They aren't a huge difference in tread pattern versus the Crimefighters. They should work well for that kind of track though if folks are happy with Crimefighters.
