Default Nitto Trail Grappler vs. Pro Comp Extreme AT

Deciding between both these tires for my rig, somewhere between 33-35' to go with my TFLEX 2.5 lift and flat fenders. First time buying tires for my Jeep so asking a few opinions. It is my DD and sees a decent amount of highway time along with a very very little trail/beach time. I like the aggressive look but I dont want to wear them out too quick either bc they are $$$. Opinions?

No comparison. The trail Grapplers are the best riding/quietnessMT. Sick tires off road!

Grappler appear to be winning in the mt division. What about the pro comp at? To expand the question, how would the pro comp at compare to another favorite at...duratrac and then both to grappler realizing a mt versus at might not be fair for a quiet ride?

i have the extreme a/t's and would advise against a directional tire... you can't rotate them properly but that is my only complaint really. i think mine have some balance issues lately because of the way they have worn.

Default terra grapplers

go with the terra grapplers if you're gonna be on the pavement most of the time. They do well offroad and will be better on road than the MT. I have them and I've done mud and rocks without a problem.

The trail look amazing but I doubt they would fair well on highways for the majority of their life.
