One of my trucks .. either the '08 Frontier or '14 Taco .. came with the BFG rugged trail as the OEM tire. I was horribly unimpressed. I trashed two of them (and only had one spare) when I hit something on a back highway. Punched through the center of the tread in both cases. Before that, I had tried driving in wet, settled spring snow. Even in 4 Low with the rear axle locked the truck was helpless.
I was in a bind, truck on blocks up in the mountains 2 hours from town, so I had to just buy what was available to get the "f"er home and be able to go to work Monday. I got Toyo open country MTs. I'm on my 5th set between the 2 trucks. I've poked 2 holes (nails/screws) through the tread but they held air to get back to town. With both trucks I could tool along in 2WD high range in places I could not go in 4 Low locked with the rugged trail BFGs.
So ... I'm NOT recommending those BFG rugged trails. Hopefully the other option, which I'm not familiar with, is not worse.
