I vote for the Nitto Terra Grapplers as well. Been running them since 2008. Wouldn't run with any other tire.
Back in 08' my tire guy said they were getting very popular and were known for their ability to balance well.
Never had a flat or blow out and rarely ever lost air pressure. I think their noise level is below or on par with their competitors.
Being in New England, I've been very happy with their excellent rain and snow performance.

Yes, there's a few guys on here but not many. One guy has them on a dually. I love them all around, I live in the northeast and plow too. Great tire so far at 20k roughly. I was having some wear issues, I got centramatics and started being good about rotating them and they are smooth as glass now.

Tires are a personal choice.
My first choice is Toyo Open Country M/T 295/70/18’s. But due to them being unavailable and too expensive if they were, my choice is General Grabber X3 295/70/18’s instead.

Interesting perspective. I would consider Nitto easily as "off brand" as Cooper myself...Never owned Nitto's, owned some Coopers, wouldn't go back. Good Year Duratracs on the truck (noisy), BFG KO2 on the Jeep. Both fitted for superior performance not a look.

I have been running them on my RAM, and will be going on my SD when it arrives. They wear well, keep them rotated. They are quiet and have great traction.

They are really good in snow, I used 4X4 less this winter than previous tires.

Are you running the Nitto Terra Grapper G2's or the Ridge Grappler?
Currently i am running Ridge Grappers on my F350, but I just upgraded to a 5th Wheel and don't know if I should stick with the ridge grapplers or move to the Terra Grapplers when I switch these out.
Thanks
Stephen
