Hey those are super terra grip tires and they are street legal but only rated to 30mph and they wear reallly fast on pavement. if u can find them used they can be cheap but new they are almost 400 a tire. i have a set of 31/15.50's on a suzuki samurai and they are def better than boggers in the mud. however on anything hard they ride like crap and are no good on rocks. they are about as good as your going to get for mud. as for upgrading your axles it all depends on what size your gonna go with.

I am reffering to the "tractor tires" aka goodyear terra grip tires
i know you can pick up a set of 52 inch tall michelins for between 500 and 1000 dollars depending where u look.
the michelins are 52/16R20

Good luck running those small axles with that big of a tire.
