Working on that right now, designing an adpater to do such a thing.
I was able to kind of clug them on using the wheel hubs off the MP, left over metal sleve from my Pure Alpha, and washer. Looked good but was un driveable.

There is some difference between the Clod Wheel and the MP.
Clod rims are 2.6" OD and the offset is near the center of the rim. The MP Rim is the same OD but the offset is much closer to the vehical. Should be "Easier" to put MP wheels on the Pede with some sort of adapter ratter than the cutting and glueing of the rims like for the Clod. IMO

not to be mean, but why would you want to go as big as MP?? i mean the grip of the tires suck, and you have alot more options with clod rims

Bigger, duh :rolleyes: :D
Clod, USA-1, and Duratrax V_Spikes tires, I've read all fit the MP rim.
For me it's because I already own both the E-Pede and the MP, so it's stock on hand :)
Plus if I make an adapter that basicly fits 17mm 1/8th wheels on 11mm hex vehicals (such as the E-pede) then there are lots of options as to wheels and tires.
hehe SST wheels and T-Maxx Rubber...
