I was shown that Proline Badlands MT tires stretched to fit over 3.7" wheels are a popular combination for truggies and Revos. They do end up low-profile like a racing tire, but have a good lug-type pattern for off-road bashing.

I'm in the same spot as you right now. I want to find a 3.7" tire that is for off-road bashing, a lug-type tire. But all the 3.7" truggy tires are pin-type for track racing.

There is a guy selling premounted tires on Ebay right now that are a Badlands clone on a 3.7" truggy wheel. The pattern is similar to a Badlands tire, but the lugs aren't as big. They are mentioned in another thread here in the truggy forum. I'm debating getting some of those to try out.
