275/70R17 32(ish)x11(ish) tires...

I'm ready to pair my 3" lift and 17" Stealth 6 wheels with some rubber... I don't want to get into trimming or chopping so I'm trying to avoid anything wider than a 275. I'm leaning toward the BFG KO2 275/70R17 (BFG claims they measure 32.2x11). My concern, I do see a fair amount of mud here in FL. My last truck was on 35" Toyo MTs and Ive never ran ATs so I'm second guessing them. The only 275/70/R17 MT is the Goodyear MT/R which weighs about the same as the KO2 but Ive read a lot of mixed reviews on them. So this brings me to option 3> Nitto trail grappler MT 265/70R17 (Nitto claims they measure 32x11).. Long story long, can anyone confirm they actually measure 32x11 and are just as big as the 275/70R17 KO2.. My wife would love for me to make up my mind so I'll get off the computer...
thanks for helping with my 1st world problems

 

An option you missed Is the Cooper Discoverer S/T (not the MAXX). Aside from being a bit loud they've been good so far in the Florida sand for me. I haven't had them in very deep mud, can't help there.

I'm running a load range C at 50lbs a piece so they're not terrible. Mileage has deff taken a hit though.

 

Good to know, nice truck.. Can't wait to loose mileage!

 

Im kinda in the same boat, I CANNOT make up my mind. Staying at 275 to avoid trimming issues, but trying to find an a/t tire that doesnt destroy my mpg since im coming from stock. I like the KO2 but heavy at 55lb and only E rated. Have been looking at the s/t and at3, both in c load.. how much of a 'hit' in the mpg did you take?

 

FWIW another option , the one I'm running is 275/70/17 Hankook ATm , not an MT though

 

x2 on that. Buddy has the same exact tires on his 4runner and loves them.

 

My rims won't be here until the end of the month... I'll let you know. I've decided in the ko2 in a 285 though
