Default rock crusher tire

Has anyone run a 40 series rock crusher narrow by rc4wd? What did you think?

i've not run the 40's but i have a set of 1.9's for one of my trucks and i can tell you they are not impressive. i do, however, love them still and run them regularly for the scale look. a guy i run with has a set of 2.2's that because of the larger size seem to work pretty good so i would imagine that the 40's are even better. they are a very supple tire, flex extemely well and the cleats on the larger tires really seem to hook up well. the cleats when they do flex seem to squeeze together turning them into a slick at the point where they meet the terrain.

I apreciate the links to the other threads but no one has mentioned how the 40 series perform. Mostly I see speculation. Any one ran the mudslingers 40 series? I understand the they are bowth made by rc4wd, but which one has the better perfrmance?

I'm not real impressed by the crushers, I run them on my twin force. I think if they were a bit wider they'd be better because of a larger contact patch on the rocks. Much softer compound would help also. I'm not sure how they compare to the mudslingers, I would think they'd be a little more stable because of the lug design, but that's just speculation.
