Better be careful with those new Boggers you have on your Jeep. The wider rims will help them a little bit to make a better footprint but you would go much better in snow with your old 35" MTRs with Kevlar on those 10 inch wide white wagon rims. Boggers are not known for working well in snow. The compound is too hard, makes them want to dig to China. The sidewalls are too stiff, even when aired down a lot they don't spread for good floatation on snow. You might be smart to invest in a winch if you plan on running them for very long, as much as you like to drive in the snow.

oh the boggs are ok. but ya have to cut and groove emm first. there great for moving forward . but with out groving the lugs the side hill stability is well scary they slide to the side really bad. you mite get to tell me: i told ya so.
