Finally need new tires - getting "E" rated this time, but which?

Finally wore out the crappy "D" rated nittos... nice tire, need more weight rating.

Heres the choices I like: (all "E" rated)

305/70/17 - Nitto Terra Grappler - Just like what I have but slightly wider - est $221
295/70/17 - TOYO Open Country M/T - same size I have now, but "E" rated - est $240
35x10.5x17 - Super Swamper SSR radial - Awesome in the mud, and perfect size for me, tall and thin - est $250

Any thoughts are appreciated...
