Actually, I sorta doubt it. Here's why... go to

http://www.walt-n-ingrid.com/other.html

scroll down near the bottom, and you can see pictures of a Dak set up with
35s that Walt found (the black one). I never really liked this one, it'd
almost certainly never work off-road (the tires are too big to get anywhere
near tucking up into the wheel wells). Not to mention I just noticed that
it looks like he stacked up lift blocks in the rear (dangerous).

My opinion is that the Tread Lightly Dak doesn't look like this one. I
could be wrong, they could be 35s, but my bet is they aren't.

(Still doesn't tell us what they are, unfortunately.)
