Nitto Trail Grappler --> They actually look pretty decent. Almost like a little more aggressive BFG A/T.

They look good enough that I am most likely going to go from my dune grapplers to the Trail Grappler. They are suppose to be the median between the Terra grappler and the Mud grappler. :D

Yeah, I have the dune grapplers and I am in no way impressed with them. I am however excited about getting a set of the Nitto Trail Grappler =)

I just bought a set of Trail Grap M/T's and love em so far. Quietest mud tire I've ever had and ride so much better than the Cooper STT's I had

They are not an A/T by any means. Lotta lug on these 35's, look like they would pull good in the mud. Rained this a.m. for the 1st time since I got em and I was impressed with how well they grab on wet roads

here is what 37's on 20's look like in my office at the shop... preety impressive imo. Honoestly, thease tirse probubly aren't the best off road tire around, but IMO they are the best off road tire for a diesel that will get 30-40gs on them before they are no good. They also do surprisingly well on ice.

Those are sick. May not be better than regular M/T but they are still better than any other A/T out there. Can't wait till my tread is gone =)

ohh also FYI each tire has two diferent sidewalls so you can choose the one that you like more.

I love mine..They are pretty good in mud and clay. I had them up in the snow about a month ago and it was packed pretty hard with ice too and they did very well. I have never been stuck with them in mud like I did with my BFG AT's. Much more aggressive tread and they wear REALLY well. Only a little hum at interstate speeds and handle well on the street. A good buy.

Got a set on the way. Great to hear good things about them. Researched and read reviews as well and it sounds like a real good tire.
 
#17 ·
what did the 35 1250 17s run you?
 
#18 ·
discounttire.com lists them for about $1140
 
#19 ·
thats pretty good.

Wish they came in a LT285/70R17 size. Anything bigger will rub with just a leveling kit. This is one of the best looking all around mud tires I have seen that is in current production. Although it is not a put mud tire likes Swampers, it is supposed to have great on road and off road manners. Wish there was a realistic mileage expectation with average driving. I see people post high mileage out of these and low mileage, but all that will depend on driving habbits. Hope this size is going to be a production item soon.

Replaced my Nitto Mud Grapplers with the Trail Grapplers (35x12.5x20 on 20x10 rims), and love them!

No, they are not dead silent on the highway or as quiet as Terra's, but the noise they make isn't annoying at all, nothing like the Mud's.

And like someone said, they look awfully good, I mean photos don't do them justice. Awesome looking tire, love them so far.

i love these tires!!! i pull trailers for goose hunting thru muddy corn-bean fields with no problems at all. i would buy these again in a heartbeat!!!

Only thing that is good about these tires is snow traction. I think they are louder than shit (Had toyo MT before), and pull terribly to the left no matter what (truck tracked perfectly straight before and alignment is spot on). Can't wait till they are wore out!
 
#26 ·
My centerlines w/ toyo tires tracked comepletely straight and never pulled and my alignment is spot on. Put on these tires w/ new wheels and it pulls hard to the left, instantly. And I'm not the only one who complains of this, at least on a cummins. And, compared to my Toyo's, they are loud as shit. What previous M/T's did you ever have?
 
#30 ·
I hear ya Smokin, it just gets old after awhile. Didn't mean to offend anyone with my opinion on the tires, but they are not performing well at all for me. Like I said though, great in snow traction but everything else I'm not fond at all of. Maybe mine have a defect but they are definetly not a tire I'd choose again.

How many miles/rotations have you done already? Compared to the Toyo's and MTZ's I think these are louder, at least mine are. I rotated mine at 5k, have 6.5k on them now.
