depends on what you are really looking for, I went with the toyo mt's and am very happy so far with them, I went through this whole dilemma. reasons for the toyo's were I didn't want any rubbing issues so they were the only ones with 285/75/17 = 34" absolutely no rubbing. Also they are E rated ( 10ply), not sure what the procomps are. the bfg's aren't. I know you said 315's so not sure if this helps or not, but so far I like mine and alot of comments on them. pics in the gallery

maybe just go by price, I bet they are both almost equally as good, however an at will probably wear a little better.

I am either going with a 285/ or 295/75/17. 99mariah can we get a couple whole truck pictures to see what the 285s look like?

I had 315/75/16 Toyo MTs on my last cummins and they were great, quiet for a mud terrain, and wore evenly throughout the life of the tire which isnt common for a mud tire. 35s are pretty wide for a stock rim, it causes the tire to balloon out wearing the center of the tire faster than it would with say a 10" wide wheel.
