Default trail grabber or Interco M-16 Tires

I am going to order a set of one of these tires tomorrow. Anyone let me know the pros and cons of them.

I live in Ohio, so trail and mud are the biggest concern. I drive daily so highway miles are important. I have BFG rubi tires on now with 50,000+ miles. I want something alittle more aggressive.

Any other tires are welcome, I am leaning toward the Nitto's

Also, the size I am looking at are 295/70/17. Should be about 33.4" by 11.5 on stock wheels. I am looking at spidertrax wheel spacers. Any comment on these will be welcome.

Thanks

Did you mean Trail Grappler?? I have heard great reviews about them, but I have heard nothing but bad things about interco tires in general. The trail grapplers are supposed to be a mix between the mud grapplers and the terra grapplers. They both look good, but I would go with the safe bet and go with the Nittos

I have about 10,000 miles on the M-16's. They are great tires. Quiet on the road and aggressive off-road. I will buy them again
