Tires Nexen or NITTO
I run ridge grapplers. They do pretty good in Colorado’s snow.
I have Nitto tires and they're great. I drive a lot of rural roads, gravel/sad crumbling asphalt. They've held up. They haven't even gone low in the cold weather at all.
I've had geolanders in the past too and they were also really nice. But the Nittos a slightly less expensive.
Love my Nittos. Much quieter and ride much more like an all season on the highway than Falkens. They’ve been great in the desert, during rain storms, and ice. No change in gas mileage either where I saw a pretty large dip with Wildpeaks.
I put the nitto on 2 weeks ago and very happy with them. Handled a small snow great.
I have a new set of the recon grapplers and they preform very well for what I do.
I used to always run KO2, but now I run Nitto Ridge Grapplers. Much better tire in my opinion. Not near as much highway noise either.
I was averaging 17.2 with my previous nitto ridge grapplers.
I had NeoGens (205/50r15) and liked the way they looked, and they handled great in dry weather... But would break loose in wet pretty easily. And while I had them I didn't notice the road noise until... I got some Continental ExtremeContact Sports (205/50r15) These guys have much less road noise, except at slower speeds where you can hear every single tiny rock and pebble tossed up in the wheel well lol. But they look fantastic and are incredible in dry AND wet weather!
I used them on my work truck and didn’t like how fast they wore out on the road, and I didn’t find they were any better than my KO2’s in the mud/snow/off-road. I got 40,000 miles out of them before I got newer tires.
Love nittos on my other truck, but for the raptor theyre terrible, horrible in rain, loud, and heavy as a mf.
