yeah they should be safe as long as they are not rubbin fenders or anything, or cracked or split. the best way to get alota quick answers other than me and kubota is to do a search and jus type in "ground hawgs" i did a few days ago and theres alota info on them.

do you have a lift kit on your truck?if not they may not fit those ground hawg 40s are really 38"S.THEY are also very wide tires 18" wide so im guessing they will rub.i really dont like ground hawgs much there an old school style off road tire.
