Looks like they are simply stretched around the laser tires, if I am not mistaken.
The rally body is sure to fit because they are on the same chassis and have the same wheelbase. I saw the rear body mounts and there looks to be more mounting options than the SCT mount allowed. My guess is the optima wheels will be better for clearance but some trimming should make the lazer wheels work.

Thanks for the info....the rally body should be here tomorrow. Maybe off for paint next week.
We are so happy with these cars at our track.
The grip levels on RCP are acceptable if you take a couple of minutes to sand the slick surface of the tires.
More pics and ramblings in my blog
Using Atomic coil over conversion to lower the ride height, and with XpowerRC foam tires (soft), the buggy has a little oversteering and great grip level on RCP
. This is printed in yellow on black 6' long pieces – ARMACELL AP/ARMAFLEX 25/50 1-1/8 ID X ½ NOM WALL R-3.2 11313 M 0237 <FM> - it feels just like the red foams that come with AKA SC tires. It has to be cut into strips and pushed into the tires. I mounted my tires without gluing them and they are secure and aren't coming off the rims in collisions. I really like the way the foams firm up the rear tires, it felt like they were just collapsing in turns. Now the truck is very predictable and has a fun amount of oversteer.
Has anyone else found other materials to use? To me personally, that would seem too stiff a material for our size. What works in a AKA SC for a scale much, much, larger and heavier than us could be just too stiff for our use compared to other ideas.
I used some Atomic packing foam (forgot what product it came with). Works perfectly for me. It is a little softer than what GIHOSU is using, although, my tires come off if I hit a wall a little hard, his dont.

I am using foam mats that are quite soft. Very similar to soft foam inserts for 1:10 tires.
Cut in strips, and fill up.
The Losi inserts are also good, but a tad to small. Much better than without though
The PN 30 shore tires are super grippy on our RCP track.
Usually comes in yellowish/ white color. I have seen them in stores that sells kitchen stuff. Old ladies use them to place their dishes on etc. I think you can find them in craft stores.
Looks like this.
The mats I use have the same feel and texture as the Losi inserts, only they come in sheets.
I found a bunch at work that had came as packing material for some machined aluminium parts.
