I know some people that ditched bfg mud and all terrain for the terra because they were so much better it was unbelievable. We took my bro's truck hunting and he has them also and they worked great in muddy snow and such. Id off road them. but thats my opinion.

If you read the thread KTplotts has them on the stock rims with pictures.

In addition, jank (in the link I posted) has the same size tire (but the pro comps) on the stock 18x8" rims (again, with pictures)

Havn't noticed any difference in drivability or gas miliage. I love these tires so far.

WOW, those nitto's are hard to find. I called a few places and they said they are back-ordered til march.

I finally found a place that had 6 in stock. (2 after my order)

Just got my Nitto A/t's put on two days ago. They hardly make more noise than my stock Scorpions. They seem to ride well so far.

Milwaukee, WI,

I don't have any pics yet. Sunday would be the first chance I could take any. I got 285's. Fills up the wheel wells much better than the stock 265's. I wish they had the white letters on them though.

I have the Toyo Open Country A/T's on mine. They are exactly the same tire as the Nitto T.G. (the side wall design is a little different). They are the same company (Toyo owns Nitto). They are the quietest A/T tire I have owned. They are also very smooth on the highway. The price of the Toyo is a little less expensive than the Nitto's , as well.

I am not sure who makes Pro-Comp Tires for 4 Wheel Parts. Maybe someone can help with this??? I have friends that have had the M/T and the A/T's from Pro-Comp. I can't remember one of them that was happy with them.

I've got terra grapplers and I'm very happy with them, they seem to wear well, aren't noisy compared to the stock tires and actually to me surprisingly quiet for as agressive as they look. Plus they are in load E unlike lots of large tires that are rated D or even C.

Best Tire I have ever owned! Wear evenly, quiet, look good, and hold pressure full of screws and nails.
I just bought an 04 F250 4x4 v10 and it has some goodyear mud terrains that were not rotated properly and are driving me nuts. But they still have a good 5000-8000 miles of life out of them so hopefully I can bring them back to life a little. Depending on the lift and tire size I go they will be my tires for the ford as well
