Default Help deciding on new tires

Hey there. So I originally bought some ultra rims + bfg all terrains (315/70/17s) off of craigslist and am in need of two new tires. My first question is a stupid one... So just to confirm that any tire that says 315/70r17 on it will fit my rims correct? I do not wish to fork out the cash for bfgs so was just wanting to get some input on the following tires . Thanks a lot.

Falken Rocky Mountain ATS

Cooper Discoverer AT3

Falken wild peak A/T

Hankook Dynapro ATM RF10

Yokohama Geolander A/T-S

Ordering off of ebay and all of these tires are within the same price range. I will be doing long distance highway driving only. Will not be hauling or towing anything of much significance either. Not too familiar with speed ratings and load ratings either :S.

Assume you have a leveled front or even a lift if running 315's? Hope those rims have at least 4.5" backspace. Yes that size is that size and will fit with maybe only slight variations between brands. Can't help you with the brands as i run nittos and you did not list those. I love mine so far.

I have the Yokohama Geolander A/T-S on mine and they are great. I'd recommend them.
