Okay...someone gave me a set as they were leaving our company that seems to
have some that might be just right. I found a link to the set, the Nitro
Bike GTX500, here on Lugnet: http://guide.lugnet.com/set/8210
No balloons (I agree, that's probably not the look you wanted)...think these'd
work? The tires on the (real) Hummer are HUGE.
Good luck - you've inspired me to give something in that scale a shot too!
