Search through the threads. There has been a lot of discussion on these tires. I can remember when I was looking for new tires and these were all topics that were discussed. My brother has them and he likes them a lot. I have yet to hear him complain about wet conditions and I have driven his truck on the highway and there is practically no noise. I went with the BFG bc they came in a bigger size than the nitto's did. I have the 305/65/R18. The 325/60/R18 were a little wider than i wanted to go.

I have the Nitto terra Grapplers in the 285/65R18 size and I love them. great in the snow and wet roads. Pretty quiet on the road as well. I have no complaints. I do wish they came in a 305 though. I loved the price compared to the 285 BFGs that is why I bought them over the BFG. Check out my gallery to get a look at them mounted with a leveling kit.

I ran my Terra Grapplers in the city for 40,000 miles with no complaints. I wouldn't hesitate to get them again. My $0.02.
