I am building / restoring a pathWinder for my 5 yr old daughter. (it's not the one in the picture, but very similar)
Anyways I am undecided on which tires to go with. These are the 3 I have it narrowed down to.
We live on 5.5 acres (all mowed lawn basically) in NW Iowa where we get snow.

Input and opinions please?

It just has CF clutch on it with a solid axle. Do you guys think that it will be hard on the clutch without having any wheel spin when turning and or make it harder to turn? I was going with matching front and back tires.

mowed lawn...
turf savers (not in your list) since while karting might be great fun for your daughter,
having a ripped up lawn is not ;)

'sid

PS Yes, a live axle is more difficult to turn, but IIRC the pathwinder had Ackermann steering so it'll still be easy enough.

Why did you say No tire spin. Especially on grass. I would think after a few laps she would be steering with her right foot anyway. I agree with sid Save the lawn and use tire option 1 or turf savers.
