Nitto Tires

[MPetrone]

I drive a 2005 Ram 2500 4x4 that noe has 166,000 miles. I have to replace tires. I have been driving on Nitto Terra-Grapplers. They have 70,000 miles on them so now going to Nevada over the mountains this winter is out of the question. I'm thinking about the Dura-Grapplers. If anyone on the forum are running these tires in wet and snow please tell me how they have performed.

i had a set of 285/75/17 duragrapplers put on in aug08,only have approx 5k on them now and i like them... seem to be wearing better than the toyo open country a/t (285/70/17)that were wore out after approx 35k?no snow driving yet but work good in rain,decent traction in dirt and mud. i'd reccomend them. . i bought online @discount tire and had them installed in chicago. i think tires were just under a grand total. . i run dynabeads so just had to pay for mounting.

Why not stick with the Grapplers? I've got just shy of 40k on mine with HARD driving ...

They have 70,000 miles on them so now

70,000miles??????:--) I have a set of tera grapplers and at 3,000 miles i have gone through almost half the tread. what have you done to get that kind of mileage out of those tires????

First, I had the tires professionally balanced. Then I put on a set of Centramatic Balancers. They will cost about $250. 00 for a set of 4. I considered this to be cheap insurance considering the cost of the tires.

I've got 20K on mine and they still look new - even after towing the toy hauler all summer. I'm very happy with the Terra Grapplers. They balanced easily, much better than the BFGs they replaced.
