Thanks for the info... Just so you know, the TRD Battery bar needs a 51R Battery Group due to size.
The Group 35 batteries you list will not fit it.
I will look into if they have the 51R sizes.
As with any build, to each his own, but I do thank you for broadening my view the available other companies.
I was not successful in my search to find this list of alternatives.
For those that do want to see how the Optima fits, I will post pics when it comes in later this week.
BTW the D51R Optima Yellow top was $214.19 +13.54 tax = $227.73 ($12 core deposit, so actually $215.73, with 10% discount) middle of the road price in your grouping.

NorthStar NSB-AGM-35 ($270, better performance)
Odyssey 35-PC1400 Battery ($250, Great performance, will be a tight fit)
Intimidator 9A35/85 ($175ish, better price and performance)
Duralast Platinum 35-AGM ($199, better performance, Johnson Control made like Optima)
