All three are good tires from what i've heard....

i'm not a fan of the look of MTR w/K tread pattern, so i'd nix those (to each there own).

As for the Nittos - any reason the Terra's and not the trail grapplers? If you're thinking Trail Grapplers, or open to them, I might say those.

Otherwise, of your 3 choices, i'll go w/ the KM2's personally.

You may want to consider the Toyota open country M/T 37/13.5/17 they are a 10 ply which makes them a bit heavy but they look mean and hold up well to sharp rocks and other trail obstacles
