I'd go with Toyo Open Country tires as well. AT or MT is up to you. My brother has about 21k miles on his MT's(33x12.50x20) and they still look great.
The BFG ATKO's are alright. IMO they're a bit too loud and over priced for what they are. They also like to throw rocks around, which may bother you depending on how much you care about paint and stuff like that.

gr8hntr. those tires look damn good on your truck.
and im not 100% sure. but i heard the open countrys have a lot of slip and slide to them on wet pavement. and another guy on here said they werent very good offroad either.

Well I like my BFG ATKO's and have not had any trouble with them. I have 20" rims and my tire cost around $362 a piece for 33's. My next set with definately be TOYO Open country MT's.

most mud tires are not the best on wet streets but i have never had a problem w/ them and i have had them on 2 different trucks... as far as the mud they will go ...i dont run through mud door deep or anything but have gone through many holes and across fields hunting and have never been stuck
i own a towing and repair shop and even use a 97 f-150 w/ 33in hankooks to do the winchouts that are so far the road that the winch cables cant reach...
you can see the other f150 behind mine in the pic
alot of people blame tires when they run their truck in a hole that they shouldnt be in and most of the time no tire would get them out
do a search on line for reviews on them .... hankook dynapro m/t
its a good tire in mud/street and miles
here is a review i found

I'm putting my money on what wxmcpo and Brody say. These guys know their SShh-tuff.
Also, IMHO BFG's arn't waht they are cracked up to be.
(How did that repair come out WXMCPO?)

Inaugural TOTM
Well the repair is going ok, the only thing the shop is waiting on is the fender flare. Would have gotten ti back this week, but........instead of a phone call telling me my truck was done I got a phone call telling me to meet the police at my truck because the wheels and tires had been stolen over the weekend.
