Those are pretty huge tires and looks perfect for some rough trails...
But let us see if the MTR's can get the job done for you...

They look perfect for snapping my front shafts. That'll be the excuse I use on my wife to gi to a D44. Lol. Last months 4WD & SUV ran 35" MTR's and said they were awkward and almost impossible to balance. Now it's between the Growlers and KM2's. I'm loving the look of the KM's. But new tires are a long way off from right now

LOL, if you think the 35's scream that then wait until you see mine on 39.5 Boggers.

May go 44/60. The 60 frt is 3.25 wider than the rear i have and HEAVY. Thats what you get when you pull from old iron i reckon. Got a guy here running 44/60 on 37's and chomos frt, never a problem out of the set-up.
