Best tires for slash?

Im looking to get new tires for my slash 2wd. The tracks that I race are mosty very hard dirt and maybe a soft spot here or there. Which tires are the best for that kind of tracks?

I personally like the stock tires. I'm on my second set. I race on a track that is fairly hard. A mix of clay and black dirt.

My wifes 2wd Greg Adler edition came with the BFG tires and they were a good improvement over the regular slash tread ! I thought they were good but they still didn't grab enough on the track. She has m2 Calibers and they are really nice , I have the JC Goosebumps on my outlaw slash on the hardpack blue grove track I run on nothing hooks up better

Seems most where I race are liking the Caliber. Might check out the Switch and Gladiator also. Running stock on ours. My son runs stock Slash. The stock tires work really well where we race.
