Default Aggressive tires?

What options are there for aggressive tires that fit stock tamiya rims?

Scott , you could get fulda crossforce from carson I got my last set from http://www.afv-model.com/ which with shipping was cheeper than PMD . rc4wd has a couple different treads . you also can take the stock tires and cut cross ways with a scroll saw or band saw lot of guys do that .I'm sure someone will tell you how with pics if you want .

The new tires from RC4WD are really nice. The compound is much softer than the stock Tamiya and forms to the ground well without the sidewalls bowing too much under load.

Most of the tires are made to fit Tamiya wheels, or Wedico wheels.
