Both are awesome tires and everyone who has owned both with claim similar performances on and off road. From what I was quoted at from Discount Tire, toyos are cheaper. I did end up going with BFG KM2s so I can't say how they actually perform, myself.
I'm kind of new here, so can someone fill me in on TreyJk's joke about wayalife clones?

Damn near everyone here runs them also. That or bfg crawlers... Mainly due to the fact thats all our local racers run and one of them is arguably one of the best in the ultra 4 series... The tires they run are all competition grade that arent available to public. So if your not racing id say there are a few good options that will hold up well for 99 percent of the use these will see. Hell ive seen some racers blow thru a tire a lap on some of the top notch high price tires... All can get messed up...
But Agreed with above i will never run another nitto due to above said site... Hell not even a toyo...

I run Nittos. Best tires I've owned. Never tried toyo. As for the wayolife peckerhead, I dont make decisions based on what he or they like, don't like, use or don't use. Unless he owns Nitto, I'm staying with Nitto. If I based what I buy on whether or not some douchebag also likes it, I wouldn't own anything. There are more douchebags in the world than there is product.
I think I ruled out toyo as the 35's are e load only.

One thing the OP hasn't mentioned is what size he will be running.
For me, I chose the Toyo's (37") as they provide a wider tread 13.5" v Nitto's 12.5", which has worked well for me.

Like jadmt said, Eddie is a really biased guy and tended to ban people when he used to own this site. I was unaware of that and I joined wayalife but soon discovered how it really is. I got chewed up over a d shackle's many purposes. And it seems like every jeep with a "wayalife" banner has Trail Graps, EVO stuff, ATX slabs, and a big Nitto decal on the side, which is why I referred the them as clones. Even still, I really love my Trail Grapplers!
