Default destroying motor mounts

since i have put 235/85/16 studded snow tires on my 01 blazer i have destroyed 2 sets of motor mounts ripped the rubber in half i have been using low lock alot but havent even had to use all the power the mounts seam to be very weak has anyone else had this problem and if so do u know of a stronger mount that could be altered to bolt on. i live in a north dakota so i use it for ice fishing it has a sotck moter but has been lifted with shakel extensions and just turning up the torsion bars with these tires which are almost 33" tall i have 15" of ground clearance so i dont want to go back to a smaller tire. i also did the same thing to a 98 s10 blazer before this one and never had a problem other than front cv axles which i can expect with the angles they are at but that truck had over 350,000 miles on the motor so it probaly had alot less power
