I just put on a set of 35x12.50x17 pro comp extreme all terrains and I LOVE them so far. They seem to be wearing great, but I need to fine tune the air pressure to make sure I get the best life out of them. What do others run thiers at? Here are a couple pics of my truck. 35's on bone stock suspension.

I have had 3 sets, stock 285 BFG AT's, 305/70/17 summits, and 35 12X50's, BFG M/T's. I liked the 305's the best, no rub what so ever, a little wider than the 12X50's, they handled well, and looked better.

They were called mud dawgs, I got them in south fl. They were only load range D, and lasted me about 30K. I was pretty rough on them, tho...

I've heard the Nitto Terra Grapplers don't last very long... any truth to this?
I would pay big money for a 305 E rated highway or a/t tire that would hold up like my stock BFG Rugged Trails... 74000 miles and still going strong...

How do the Nitto Terra Grapplers perform in the rain? Also, how do the ProComp X-treme All Terrains perform in the rain? Also, if anyone has any experience with either of these tires in snow or thick, chunky mud let me know.
