Bigger tires will not (or at least should not) cause flex plate to crack. That end of transmission get input that is only what engine can handle. The back end of transmission will output higher torque required by larger tires. The issue with failed flex plate will be due to engine and transmission not being aligned properly. That's why I'm asking what engine you have and what transmission. Is it OEM setup or modified? Does flywheel (flex plate) mounted correctly to the engine? Does transmission case mate properly to the engine or is it just a smidge off? Was flex plate dropped prior to install? Is it a Mitsubishi part or made in China aftermarket "universal fit"? Are there several indexing hoes on the flex plate? We're to right ones used?
Again - better description of your vehicle and photos of the failure would be helpful.
