I work at a tire shop. I'd say the best looking tire out of the bunch is the toyo. Also look at the cooper discoverer stt tek3.

I love my Nitto Trail Grapplers. The Toyos are very similar. I don't think you can go wrong with either of those.

We are running the KM2's on our XJ and absolutely love them. Highly recommend them to anyone. Have had them for over a year with about 10k and there not even half way down yet.

Toyos and nitto both run very close to actual size. Bfg k/m2 are a lot smaller. 35x12.50x15 barely measure out to 34".
