35" nitto mud grappler

Looking for someone running 35x12.50x17 mud grapplers on factory wheels. I would like to now a few things if possible. Do to our state laws I can't run a tire that is larger than 17" from center of hub to outside of tread measured horizontally on the public hunting lands. I know the tire says it is a 35 but I am hoping it measures a little small and I don't want to run a 33. What kind of mileage can I expect out of these tires? Any help is appreciated.

They will wear very quick on our trucks, not very hard of a tire compound. Work great on jeeps that play on the rocks...

Everyone says they wear quick, but mine have 5,000 miles and look like the day I bought them. Don't expect them to last forever but so far they are doing great, even though I have quite a bit of weight in the truck most of the time. Probably go to Toyo MT next time though, getting tired of the MT howl. But for the price of them vs Toyos cannot complain at all.
