There are a lot more choices when it comes to batteries. Those hardcases are designed around the car chassis.
 
Assuming you will be using these batteries in a hi-amp draw application, i would not advise the used of car “hard packs”

in most FE boats we are using 5.5mm connectors at a minimum.  With hard packs, you will be limited to what come with the battery

the “C” ratings seem to be inflated when compared to an equal capacity soft pack from a reputable source

since the actual batteries are enclosed in a hard case you don’t get to easily do a visual inspection and your temps will be slightly skewed because of the case as well.

most importantly, a 5000mAh car pack WILL NOT perform as well as 5000mAh soft high end hobby pack.
