A more aggressive tread pattern will be harder to turn (assuming you are running stock tires) plus a larger size will be much harder to turn. After adding larger more aggressive tires it's always a good idea to compensate by freeing up the airflow going in and out of your motor to give you more power to turn your new 589's

No you will not lose hp but you will lose performance. You will have more rotating mass, it will likely cut into your top end and accelerationa little because you will have to start more momentem. Improved will be your traction though, a worth trade off in my opinion. I have 589 M/S now on rear and like them but looking to go to mudlites all around.

No tips here, but the Rancher is the ultimate sleeper 4X4. They tackle the deep holes with the big boys. I was watching some folks mudding this past week end, and the little 329 went thru the same crap as the 500+ machines.
