I bought a set of interco tires. Super Swamper in 47x17 17R. I don't have enough ground clearance with the 40s. Here they are on a Jeep it should look good

They make 58s now this begs the question what gears to get for my axles. I'm thinking around 7.17
P.S. I would if I still lived in Texas no lift laws around here Johnny Law would wait outside my driveway to pull me over
