Default Giant Tracs for the small scale crowd?

Check out these Ofna tires.....

They look a lot like Giant Tracs, wonder if they work as good?

Looks good.... but performance all depends on the rubber compound. I'm not familier with ofna rubber

Are those taller than the swamp dawgs....? They look good and I have to check if they are taller, because if they are, I think a WD40 bath would make them worth my while.

If nothing else they would make great snow tires, they look to be the widest 2.2 tire out there and I would think the tread would work well too.

According to the measurements give about the tire they should be about 1/4" or so taller than a 2.2 Swamp Dawg.

I looked and the swamp dawgs are 4.75" like those tires. If I didn't have a bunch of tall 2.2's I'd get them. Oh well...
