Need help deciding on tires

Ive narrowed my search down to 3 tires the Toyo Open Country MT, the NItto Terra Grappler, and the BF Goodrich MT, i have a 2004 supercab FX4 with the 18" wheels, i cant decide if i would rather do 33" or 35" tires please help me decide which of these will fit best in those sizes and which would look and wear the best.

All are great tires. It seems like you need to decide if you need a mud terrian tire or an all terrian tire. As for size, how much lift do you have?

I'd go with 33's myself. That way, you can use stock or aftermarket wheels.

Bro stay away from the open country mt's the soft rubber causes them to wear fast. My neighbor has them and after only 18,000 miles they are shot.
look at the kuhmo venture MT's they are the bomb very aggresive and not bad manners on the highway ( and reasonable price wise). good luck.
