Hands down, the BFG A/T KO's are the best tire I've ever had. Period (end of story!--almost). The price isn't bad depending on what size you're getting and the ride is superior. The highway ride is quiet but solid. I went with the triple-ply version which is softer than a true offroad tire, but it has better on-road performance. Looks are subjective, but I think it's got a decently aggressive look if you've got a rig that does at least 80% of it miles on-road. The tire is reversible/non-directional, so you can do white letters out, or hide them on the inside and have a regular blackwall tire. Offroad handling is good--I took them on several offroad outings, some at over 10,000' in very rocky country in Montana, and here in the Pacific Northwest (rock/mud) and the performance was very good. Treadlife is rated highly, and the warranty is good. Here's a stock '09 JK, no lift, just 17" wheels and 265 70R 17 BFG A/T KO's:
Our other tire candidate at the time was the Goodyear MTR, but the warranty/treadwear was substantially less, the tread much more aggressive (may be good, depending on your needs?) and the cost was about $30/more per tire. We had the BFG's installed through Discount Tire.

Also too if you are looking for a good deal on the tires, call discount tire direct and see what they can do for you. Even though I purchased the mud terrains, they helped me out and sent me wheels and tires for less than if I would have just purchased the tires here locally. The nice thing about online is that there are no additional fees or taxes. You essentially pay for the tire and rim. Good luck with your purchase!

I've got the 285/70/17 BFG A/T KO E-Rated tires.
I'm in pretty flat TX as well, and love these things. I paid $500 for 4 off CL.
First pic is with 2.5" lift. Next 2 are with no lift.
I'm also running Rough Country's 1.5" wheel spacers. Only costed $118 shipped to my door for 4. On stock 17" bedlined wheels.
