Exclamation Stuck between tires. NEED HELP!

I bought a new to me 01 Lariat 4x4 Screw. Going with a 17x9 Fuel Hostage and would like a 33/12.50r17 or a 285/70r17 tire. But I am stuck between the BFG All Terrain, BFG Rugged Terrain, and Goodyear Duratrac. I am on the road 85-90% of the time but whenn off road its usually in sloppy mud. Also, we get quite a good mount of snow here in Ky so it needs to perform in all conditions

Sloppy mud and rugged terrain don't go in the same sentence. BFG A/T is tried and true. duratracs I've seen don't wear very well. Check out the Cooper ST/maxxx, made in 'Murica! blend of a mt and a at. love mine. good price. wear well.

Thanks man. I was also looking at the toyo open country at2 and a cooper stt mud tire in 275/70r17. Think a 275 mud would look like a 285 AT?

"ish" to you question. don't forget with M/T's, they're really not for the pavement, doubly wet pavement. something to consider even if they do look cool. If you're on the road 90% of the time, I'd stick with at's. also, if you don't mind not having road hazard, you can buy tires online and get them mounted for way cheaper than a NTB or big-o, etc.
