I run the trail grapplers. All around they are the best mud terrain I have ever owned. Hands down the best choice from your list imo

I wouldn't agree with the tread wear. I researched that before I bought and they had the deepest tread to start of any of the tires mentioned here and have worn great for me so far after 8,000 miles. I didn't see that mentioned when I researched them myself and haven't seen it so far with mine. I love the look although I don't have them mounted white out but my Jeep isn't white either. Good luck with whatever you decide. I'd just stay away from the MTKR's from everything I have hear (no personal experience though).

Thank you for your feedback. I am kicking out the mtrk for various reasons. It will be the toyo, nitto, or cooper. Unless i find some kinda steal on the mtz

I have a set of Nitto Terra Grapplers right now, best all terrain tire Ive ever had. Will upgrade to 35" Trail Grapplers when these are done. Go for the Nitto's!

My 35" MTZ's measure out to 33.75". Other than that, no complaints.
