How bout some shamless fender trimming..

I have a 6" lift on my 90 crewcab, and I'm currently running 35's. I got the itch to go with bigger tires, but haven't decided if I want to add more lift or not. I dont have a problem using a cut off wheel on my inner and outer fenders or my bumper. I'm thinking of going with between a 40 and 42 inch tire. Also, for that size of tire, what kinds are good on an icy highway? Its a daily driver and acreage mule so I want a bit more aggressive of a tire than I have now, but I also want it to be longer lasting than some off road tires and have a load rating to safely be able to carry a few thousand pounds in the box pics of your 40-42 inch tires on similar lift would be nice thx..
