Nitto Mud Grapplers

How bad do these tires ride? The truck I am looking at has 35" Nitto MG's. They look awesome, but how do they ride?

They actually ride pretty smooth. I really only feel the tread blocks in parking lots at under 10mph. They are a very agressive MT though so their sound is not their highest point.

I have 35x12.50R18 Mud Grapplers on my Titan. Have had them on there now for about 4K.

I have Toyo M/T's and love mine theyre really quiet for a mud-terrain tire. I dont have experience with the Nitto's tho.... I know that my dad's 33" Toyo M/T are louder than my 35"

i used a set of 33x13.5 mud grapplers and they are amazing performing on and off road. for a mud tire they are very pleasant to drive on the street, however there is one downside to the grapplers, they howl extremely loud on the road.

i have 35x12.50R20 mud grapplers and i love them.... They look amazing, pull amazing, wear nicely, and have good road manners. They will not pull you from one side of the road to another like some other mt tires. i had BFG KM2's before in a 35x12.50R17 and they wandered from right to left based on the road. And wore like Shat..... They weren't noisy and they didn't pull good either. The only down side to the mud grapplers is they are EXTREMELY noisy. At freeway speeds you can't listen to the radio and carry a conversation at the same time.

Well, I anticipated that they might be a little loud. It is good to hear most like them. What kind of mileage has everyone gotten out of them?
