Default Nittos or Generals?

Getting 35s pretty soon and have always thought the General Grabbers were great looking. But I loved my Nitto Trail Grapplers and just curious if anyone has a comparison or favorite of the two. Also I was previously looking at the MTR w/ Kevlar and saw 315/70/17 and
35/12.50/17 and the prices are at least 50 dollar difference. I thought they were pretty similar in size ? I like the MTRs but heard of balancing issues... Anyways thanks for input

I have been running the general red letter for a few months now, I've taken it on three trails and 3 of the generals have peeled off the side walls. They are good tires but they are soft.

I wanted the Nitto's so bad
Only hear good things about them in all conditions. BUT no one could get them for me up here in Ontario Canada. So I picked up the Mickey Thompson MTZ's 35x12.5x17 very happy with them too.
AND the Nitto's look so bad ass too!!

I have a friend with the Generals on his F350 and he loves them. But I've read tons of great reviews on the Trail Grapplers.

I've been running Nitto's on my cars, trucks and Jeep for the past 8+ years. Really like them.
