Just got another call. This one from the Sheriff's Dept. saying that we need to find interior shelter. Winds up to 100mph in Dacus, just across the lake from us.
Trying to upload some video for you guys right now....
I think thats what Im goin to go with next. I have the Grapplers on now and arent as impressed as I thought I would be.
Any big online store sell them?! I dont remember seeing them online much and dont wanna pay retail for them locally!
I cant even find Toyo's locally. I havent actually ran a set but I have ran the Nitto's and were in no way shape or form impressed. I'm running Cooper ST's right and have been well pleased with them, and Iam gonna get a he!! ofa lot more miles out of them then the Nitto's.
Wow scott, good thing you drive a super duty. If you drove a honda car (like I bought for the ol lady) you might get blown away all the way up to canada!
Yeah....the thunder is really rocking. Lightning strikes are close. Dallas started slamming against the door wanting in. Cody opened the door and she shot in and ran into my bedroom. I'm really surprised that we still have power. The satellite just went out so I am thinking the power will be close behind. Lots of trees here, we live right in between two National Forests...
I decided on the Nittos only because a buddy of mine used to sell their passenger car tires and were awesome. Guess I needed to give them a few more years...
Tristan, how many miles did you get outta your nitto's?
I got 90,000 kms on my goodyear silent armours before the one blew out. I would have got quite abit more (the rest of the tires are at 6, 9 and 9 thirty seconds, one that blew was 6) but the one that blew out, was non reapairable.
Theyre still on...I guess I shouldnt draw conclusions just yet. Maybe 15-20K without looking at the receipt! My Yokohomas were the best tire Ive had on my truck. Since only paying 98 a piece for them a few years ago they have shot up in price. I think it was 435 or so total. No way I could do that now.

Nitto Grapplers
Here's the first video. Radio is reporting a confirmed tornado at Huntsville State Park. That is roughly 10 miles north of us. They have also reported spotting one in The Woodlands. That is just south of us. So far we're doin good, dodging them on all sides!
Regardless I dont have 17s so I dont know how much that adds.
My nittos were 285/75/16 and they were MAYBE 650 or so mounted and balanced??! I bought them with leftover insurance money so I didnt pay too much attention.
