Do you think better tires might help with the mud? But then again It is a lot cheaper to go with what you have instead of investing in new stuff

I think smaller/smoother tyres on the rear would have been a benefit to some degree, leaving more room in the wheel arches and picking up less of the sticky mud. But it's probably only a matter of time before they clogged regardless, it was difficult to even walk on the road let alone drive anything smaller than a tractor.
I'm not back home in quarantine so I've pulled the car apart to clear out the rest of the mud, there's still a lot despite driving around 1500km through rain and corrugated gravel and a river crossing or 3 since the incident...
I've also started planning on the front bumper build, more about that can be found in this thread
