I go Monday to pick it up at a local hobby shop.I need info on accessories.Like wheels and such.Is there a place I can check for wheels?

I had some in mind but Traxxas said they wouldn't fit.They are for the Sledgehammer.

I have had my stampede for six months the only problem I've had with it is with the servo gears I got a new hitec HS615MG Power for my car and also the servo heads stripped out I need to get a new one and I'll tell you what I get I also got a speed Gems 2 Topaz 11 turn motor and a dynamit power pulse speed control i would suggest getting a 13 turn motor for more torque my motor goes fast but has trouble pulling whellis unless it's on a hill

Kevin,

RPM makes wheels close to what you posted. They're plastic, have a chrome finish, and look nice.

I know they have them for the GT, but not sure about the pede..
