Which set of tires to get...Need Help.

My tax return check is coming soon and I'm set on buying a set of tires. I already own (1) Toyo M/T 33x12.5x18 ($300 shipped), but have no idea if it's going to fit without rubbing because it so wide. I've also been thinking getting a set of Pro Comp Xtreme A/T LT325/60R18 (33.60" wide & $288) or some BFG T/A KO LT285/65R18 ($259)for my truck. I have a 2wd but at first wanted M/T to make it look aggressive, but now don't know what to get. I don't care about spending more for gas, if i was worried about that I wouldn't have bought a truck. Which do you all think I should get and why? Thanks.

Sorry for reposting just wanted answers fast.

I have the Pro Comp Xtreme AT's on my truck and absolutely love them. These actually weren't my first choice (wanted the Nitto Terra Grapplers), but the shop owner who did my lift had these tires on his truck. I went outside and took a look at them and was instantly hooked. I currently have almost 13k miles on my set and they still look brand new. They are a very aggressive looking tire yet are very quiet on the roads.

Plenty of pics in my gallery.

I'm pretty sure you're going to have issues with 12.50 or 325 on a non-leveled 4x2. Anything that fits your truck should not have a major impact on your gas mileage.
