Which Tire?

Trying to choose between BFG rugged terrain, and Nitro Terra grappler. But in a 265/70/18 which do you think would give better performance and aggressive look?

And just to make sure. A 265/70/R18 tire will fit on to a stock Sahara rim correct?

Why not a bfg at ? It's all I would use in northern MI and never needed 4hi even in a foot of snow. Out of your choices I would do the terra.

I have the Rugged Terrain. Great all around tire and very quiet, and easily balanced.'

This in no MT at all but if you are logging a lot of miles as a DD this tire can't be beat.

Neither will have an "aggressive" look at all, I would look at some Goodyear Duratracs or bfg all terrians for a better look and good on road tire.

I would do the all terrain.....and that comes from someone with the rugged terrain's. They don't look nearly as aggressive after you put a few miles on them. These are 265/70-17's on stock wheels. The terra grapplers won't do much for you either.
