These are pretty narrow. Not the best all around crawling tire but work decent if you sand down the internal ribbing on the inside and don't run alot of foam in them. I like them for the looks and they do perform grippy rocks and the mud/bashing terrain.

For stock 2.2 tires, likely Rovers or Cougars.

I believe there is a thread with various tires listed & the dimensions.
Running a narrow rims helps as well.

Why do you want to know??

Proline super swampers
Axial ripsaws
RC4WD Rok Lox

All are a pretty narrow tire that when mounted on a narrow wheel around one inch wide will look pretty scale. Or you can try to cut and shut a set like others have said.

Ya, gluing a tire back together seems like a really unreasonable amount of effort

You could try some rc4wd rock and die tires. They are really narrow and work pretty well.

i think a cut-n-shut would be your best choice. just had these made for me, definitely worth it. you would be very pleased with a 1.9
