B) The same size as the other cars in the group you are travelling with. Yuo don't want to be the only guy with a 345/62/r19 when you have just had your 5th puncture.
C) Square shouldered, tall, narrow radials. Tall narrow tyres take far less HP to push in sand (and on the road) and are less vulneable to damage.
Personally, I would run 9.00X16's If i was building a car just for this type of work.
just my 2c.

hilux, fairly well loaded, not towing, around august.
after reading up on these fc2 tyres, they seem like a fine choice.
