Which Tire For 315's Out Back???

So I'm really undecided on which of these to get. What is your personal experience with them? They will be on a pretty much daily driver. I'm aware that the Nitto's run small but i LOVE their tread pattern. The BFG's will probably need more banging out of the fenders which is no problem and I really don't know much on these tires. I'll be runnin TTII's (17X9.5) (17X11) as well if that means anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

BFG's have more grip and less tread life.
Nitto's are much better in the rain.

BFG'S burn out in no time. They hook hard though. Never had nitto's.
