Which ones?

Its almost time for new tires and I have narrowed down my choices down to 3.
Truck is a 2005 Screw 4x4 w/ a 2.5" AS by the way and I currently have 285/65 BFG AT's.

1. 305/65-18 BFG AT's - shortest tire of the group at 33.7" tall. However, I would believe the longest lasting. Price=$1294.40

2. 35x12.50-18 BFG KM2 MT's - this is the new design. I really like the look of these tires, but please does anybody have any input on how they wear? Price=$1307.20

3. 35x12.50-18 Nitto Mud Grapplers - not even sure these will fit, but they sure look mean. I have heard they wear very quickly though, any input? Not too worried about the road noise. The main reason they are on here: Price=$1086.80

Any input on any of these tires from anybody would be great! Especially if anyone has any info on the treadwear of the KM2's!

Ive heard bad things about the Nittos as far as noise and wear, but thats just hear say.
The BFG's have a good rep and the KM2's look pretty sharp. I just bought some Firestone M/T's for $1150. They got some good reviews. Check out this site, it helped me alot!
