You can usually find hub extenders for most trucks... just do a search on tower or ebay.

To make it easier on yourself why don't you get some wheels with 3mm, 6mm or 9mm offset to compensate for the wider body? I mounted 6mm offset rims and 9mm offset in the rears on my Sprint to fill out the wheel wheels withthis 200mm Fire bird shell. It should be the same principal foryour TC4.

You can get them anywhere.  Do a search on Tower Hobbies for "offset 6mm" and you'll find some.

I bought mine for the LHS but can be found on Tower like mentioned above. I have the "Works" wheels by HPI and they have many other styles too if you do not like them.
