i was told that 35`s can break things a lot easier,eg axles etc.
BUT in saying that,i have seen a LWB GQ bend the lower diff arms.He had a 308 in it as well as 35`s.He had to drive home in 4w high after pulling out the rear tail shaft.

This is why i only got 33`s.

My 2c worth.

Just something to be carefull of, as we all know standard GQ's have high range & low high range (wish i had a spare $1500 for Rockhoppers) going to a large diameter tyre this problem will be increased.
