Won't be legal to run on highway. Although they would look pretty cool.

Not sure why it wouldn't be legal. It's essentially a 39" tire that is a radial.

The reason I say they are not legal is I am pretty sure they are not DOT legal being that they are part of the agricultural line of tire. Also, If you get them over 25 mph on-road they would probably shake you off of the road. Just my $.02.
