They have very low ratings;
 
For the size for the Jeep 2300lbs
 
For ones that would fit an H1 or H2 it is only a measley 2750lbs...nowhere near enough!

Can anyone answer the following rim/tire question for me? The rims on my H1 are 17" x 9" with 40x13.5x17 tires. Does a 42x14.5x17 tire fit on my rims safely?

Technically both would require a 17x12 rim BUT if it is a Beadlock a 17X9 will be a tad skinny but overall fine!

With the 9inch instead of the 12inch the tire will crown more than it normally would.

The 17x 9 rim is not a bead lock (XD revolver). 42x14.5x17 still good and safe ?

What name brand of tire? Most manufacturer sites should have recommended size chart, that's there suggestion but over or under a little would still work,

At least with a 9". You'll be able to set your bead. Easily hehe,

I run a super swamper that's a 39.5 with a 15" *bulge to bulge* cross section (ps that the fatest tire you can run on a factory rim btw ,without hitting suspension parts) on a factory rims and zero issues, hwy drive daily.
