Default 1.9" tires with less than 4" outer diameter?

I'm looking for a more scale tire for my Mini Summit, and I think a set of 1.9" crawler tires would work nicely -- but only if they're less than 4" tall, i.e. the same size or smaller than the stock Mini Canyon AT tires that come on the Mini Summit. I like the way the Flat Irons look, just as a point of reference, but I have no idea if they're a suitable diameter, or what other options exist. I briefly considered a set of Vaterra Slickrock TSLs, but then I saw reviews stating they wear out really fast, and I had flashbacks to the crappy rubber used to make the tires on my Losi Mini Desert Truck.

Suggestions?

Pro line trenchers. I run them on my merv. They wear pretty slow have a ton of grip. If you are set on crawler tires. I know rc4wd has some dick cepeks and a few others that are under 4

The original flat irons are 4.2 inches, that's about what you're looking for.

I have those on my MERV too, but they're too small for the Mini Summit.

Thanks, those look pretty good. Too bad the Fun Country tires are out-of-stock, those look like they'd be perfect on my Mini Summit.

I have some of the Mud Thrashers and they seem to work alright.

1.9 Cepek Mud Countries are great tires. They're soft, short and wide as well as having nice a scale look.
