Tire recommendation needed

I need to know which of these two tires would you recommend as an all around better tire: BFG A/T K/O or Trailmark Radial APR. I'm getting one or the other in 32x11.50 but I would like some opinions on either before I make a decision.

Who makes the trailmark tire? Never heard of it. Is it a no name brand? Are they AT tires. You have to compare AT tires to AT tires.
 






i'd go for whichever one is more aggressive...
 






I am not sure about the trailmark tires but all of my friends that run BFG AT's swear by them. I have driven in a Gen I explorer with BFG AT's, 33x10.50's I think, and it went like a bat out of hell in just about all conditions other then loose sand. The tred wear on the BFG's are also great so spend the money. :thumbsup:
 












I've decided not to go with the Trailmark (made by Kelly) but I still don't want to go the distance with the BFG's (limited funds) what do you all think about the Kumho Venture MT?
 






I ran trailmark summit radials (made by kelly) on my ranger for years. I had 4 sets over the life of the truck. I had 3 non-repairable flats and 2 blowouts on the 5 factory firestones.

They are still on it, but my brother has it now. They did fairly well and are a lot cheaper than BFGs. I never had a flat or blowout on any of them even off-road.
 






i love my Roughriders, but you cant get them down there
 












the kumhos are actually a pretty good tire... and are awesome when compared to their price
