snapping axles with mud tires?

Just wondering if anyone ran into issues with breaking axles while using heavy mud tires. I want to get a set of 27" mega mayhems but I'm worried about them being to aggressive grabbing a rock and snapping an axle. I ride up in mountains where the land is pretty Rocky and want a good mud tire

Well I got some mudzillas they are 28" they don't broke axles really it's all about the thumb control.

You don't hear too many stockish tires breaking axles, but the mud tires are snapping them fairly often. Its all about control of the throttle and grabbing things like roots and rocks.

I ran 31's all last year on stockers with no issues, changes them out this year for piece of mind.
