I bought five as discount tire gave me some credit for my old tires. The spare fit with no issues.
I am running 42 psi right now.

Those look good. I posted up my 5 - 275 70 R18 Goodyear DuraTracs on the Mud Classified section if anyone interested. These would be a huge improvement over stock tires. Three of them are basically new.
I've gone the 17" wheel route.

Nothing off road to report.
We did drive about 750 miles on Saturday. Speeds up to 85mph. Didn't track mileage.
These tires are great on the highway, no issues with noise or handling. I think the speedo is spot on now as well. There is a slight difference with acceleration. I noticed it mostly on inclines at speed where I had to give a little more gas to maintain a certain speed. The eco light was not on as much when this would happen, so I assume that mileage is affected.

What size tires are these?

Oooooh... Can you do a real-world, post-mount measurement for what height you are getting with 34x10.5?
I'm super curious, as I'm trying to get close to a REAL 34" as in...it's darn near 34 MOUNTED.
How much do you measure and at what pressure? I'm on RW's as well, so I'm curious.

My 34/10.5R17 KO2 on Rock Warrior wheels measure a measly 33.1". This was done by carefully measuring the circumference.

And THAT... is my frustration in my search!!! You never know what you're actually gonna get in terms of real-world height...except that it will be significantly SMALLER than the height advertised...

Advertised height is 33.5", width is 10.6" on 8.5" rim. BFG fine print is below. Do the math and it works out.
>> The sizes shown are average design values for tires measured on specified measuring rim widths. Some tires may vary from this value by +/-3% of the section height (affecting overall diameter), and +/-4% of the section width.
>> Section width varies approximately 0.2" (5mm) for every 0.5" change in rim width.

Curious... Where did you find that fine print? Helpful!

At the bottom of the BFG AT KO2 Page.... there is a ton of fine print.

2010 LX 570 with 20" wheels and a nice ride but need new tires and want off road tires. Have always had 18" wheels on previous LC's and wondering how I will like the new 20" tires as opposed to the previous 18's? What draw backs are the 20's? Should I convert to 18" wheels? Suggestions please and thanks for response
