Anyone have experience with Yokohama or Nitto tires?

[Bumbo]

I'm trying to dial down some good alternates to a BFG KO2 AT. Something with better life, comfort, and wet performance.

Main use if on-road, light tow, road-trips. Very light off-road... Generally an easy dirt road to get to camp. Really nothing a set of passenger car tires can't handle...

Currently looking at:
Yokohama Geolandar a/t-s
Nitto Terra Grappler
Cooper Discoverer at3

I am leaning away from the Coopers since my brother has them as seem to be a nail magnet when off-road.

Is there anything else I should add to the list of contenders?

I have Nitto Dura Grapplers on the SR5 2WD. It's a highway tread rated at 65 k. My son has taken it snow boarding in CO without any problems. My 03 sport has the Nitto Terra Grappler and so far they are great. Rated at 65K miles too. The Dura Grapplers have less road noise.

My driving has been similar to yours except I have tackled a little more rocks and dirt in the west it sounds like but it is limited to my time off. I have been running the yokohama Geolander A/T-s and love these tires. Its the 3rd set I have had accross 2 different vehicles and we also had them on my wife's previous crosstrek and I have never gotten less than 60k out of a set.
