Maxx paddles, Id say proline, but I think the panthers would be better as they have more of a scoop to them.

wouldnt somthing like the imex pullers work well, because the tread is spaced out and tall.they are like a paddle tire with lower profile paddles heh..

Honestly,I feel that Kongs would dominate over any tire in the mud. Ground clearence is king in the mud,the higher everything is the less it's gonna drag. Theres probly still some pics of Toyo's rig with Kongs floating/treading water keeping the rig afloat while moving across the water. I myself am a fan of tall and skinny tires or pizza cutters as some call them. I don't really care for my 35x12.50 muds on my Toyota,to wide,if I could get a 38x10.50 TSL I'd be tickled to death. When I finally get the cash to get my 38's,since they come in 12.50 width, I may run them on 7" wide wheels to skinny them up some

If I were to build a mud bogging RC,I'd run Kongs narrowed to about 2" wide.

Any big tire will work well. And r/c's are so light, a wide tire will actually work better because it will let the truck float across the mud.

And you can't mud bog without Boggers!

I feel that K-Rocks would do well in very wet sloppy mud, no clay though.
