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.

Do you have a link to that tire? This is exactly what I am looking for - Badland type lug tyres on a 3.7" ID wheel. I also like the Mulchers - great for grass etc..
