need opinion on these tires

i know you a lot of you guys aren't going to like the wheel/tire combo i'm looking to put on, but i've personally had a hard-on for the 22x14 diesels since i first saw them.

My nitto mud grapplers are defective, so i'm returning them for a refund and selling my current rims (the lugs are litterally peeling off after 6000 miles). I'm getting the 22x14s, but i don't want to run 40s on them, so i'm going to run some 37x13.5r22s. I've attached some pics of the toyos, kumhos, and bfg KM2s (i won't get mud grapplers again, terrible noise and fell apart literally).... which do you guys think look the least bubbled out?
So heres some pics of all those tires on the 22x14s

Toyos




Kumhos




BFG KM2s




And heres some pics of my truck as it sits now

Personally I like the wheels you have now better.

All those wheels have way to much backspacing and stick out way too far. Looks silly. Especially the blue dodge.

I wouldn't change those IMO. I don't like the huge wheel look.

I like my Toyo MTs, so when you wear out the mud grapplers you might look at the Toyos for sure.

To choose from the 3 pics, I'd say the Kumhos look better. They look less stretched. I've talked to people who really like those tires, too.

Toyo's....
I had the Mud Crapplers too.... @ 10k miles one of them shreaded off the rim on the freeway... needless to say i was a little PO'd...
but yeah I love my Toyo's. The wife has em on her truck(SUT) and loves em ..more for the looks i think....

So there ya go... great tire, and chicks dig em!

I love my KM2's. They ride great for an aggresive tire. Not noisy and helped the ride of my truck a bunch!

Well, since you asked, I think the big wheels and low profiles belongs on kids Honda's or something, not on a 4x4. That GM looks gross. (insert puking smiley here)

Yes I know, I'm old fashioned and prefer the big balloon tire look, I've been told that already!
