Default Low Profile 2.2 tire

Hi guys, does anyone know if there is a low profile 2.2 tire out there? With a small side wall.

The HPI geolandars or pro-line dirt-works tires are really short compared to a "normal" rock-crawler tire.

And both seem to work fairly well out on the rocks.

I've also seen a couple of guys that stretched 1.9 tires onto a narrowed 2.2 rim for a "bling bling" kind of look.

Although answers have been posted I thought I would add to them.
Yes they are blue compound (same as 2.2 Rock Claws) and yes they are from the Desert Truck.
Also note that the tire has a thicker "carcuss". We did this to help keep the tire from "ballooning" at higher RPM's.
