I tried running the badlands without tape and they ballooned a lot, especially the front tires when running a center diff. I used some strapping tape on them and they are very nice now.

As for 40 series tires ballooning it really depends on the tire just like any other profile. Of the ones that I have tried road rages had fairly minimal ballooning (while they have traction) and mulchers are not bad either thanks to ribbing on the sidewalls, mashers would turn into pizza cutters at high speeds or breaking traction.

I think you will be happy with the badlands for general purpose bashing tires.
