Gotta love the Big Bear...the first RC monster truck. Years before Tamiya's offerings appeared.

Nice find!
Tires will be hard to source but the ones you have don't appear bad in the pictures from what I can tell.

There are adapters so you can use Blackfoot/Monster-Beetle wheels/tires. I have some for mine. They're vintage parts, but they are out there.
