What set would you choose?

So I’m already planning on spend my taxe return on a new set of tires and rims for my 16 grizz. I’ve narrowed it down to some 27" mud lite xtr’s or 28" zillas. Both would be on 14 inch asm diesel m-12s. I ride trail/mud/ice/snow. I don’t want to change anything with the clutch or suspension. I like that the zillas come in a 28" and that they are a lighter tire but I’ve read some horror story’s about the durability. Let me know what you guys think.
