If you are considering the wheels and a lot of wheeling in rocks and mud, keep in mind this combination is right on the margin of being practical. Some 35" tires like my KM2s are just barely tall enough to protect the rims from most road rash. The sidewalls are also tall enough to provide enough flex for a comfortable ride with up to D load range tires, but E's are a bit too stiff.
For the price of a set of 18x35" tires you can buy 17"s and have some cash for new wheels.

35s on 18s
I have done some heavy duty crawlin in the rocks,aired down to 10lbs and did pretty well. Did get some rock rash on the wheels,but performed well.I'm not too happy with the BFG's,I'm thinking of going to the toyo next time.Overall this tire/wheel configuration rides and handles very good.
