I believe you would want the rears ... they should have the hex in the back, though I have never seen the back of a Jato rim, hmm, gives me something to do at work today! =P

looks like they will still have plenty of offset.

the jato rims are larger than 2.2 rims. i cannot remember how much, but it is alot.
those might work, but dont take my word for it.

Jato's run 2.8" wheels if I remember correctly. You can just stretch a 2.2 tire over that.

I checked out those new era wheels from the link posted above. And then I decided to see what they had for tamiya wheels, and looked under TLT. Here is what I found http://www.neweramodels.com/item.cgi?part_id=2220
