Tires NITTO or DEXTER
I love my Nitto Ridge Grapplers and they come with 60+k mile warranty from Nitto. Smooth, quiet ride with them and I do a lot of highway driving and tow a 32’ boat ~3x a month.
I would have chosen/ordered these ATX from WM to replace my Falkens, but a tree branch punctured my tires and I was forced to buy *in stock* Dextero DAT1 AT Tires. NOT 3PMS, but look VERY similar the my Wildpeak AT Trails! I got the rear set replaced, will replace the fronts soon. Happy with my purchase.
I’m running 255/80 17 Ridge Grapplers on my Tacoma and love em.
I have had 2 sets of them in 5 years on an 05 tahoe. First set has lasted me roughly 48k and the most recent pair are still on the tahoe with abiut 20k on them (Tahoe is sitting, I now drive a 2016 Colorado) The tires are made local to me in South Carolina. For the price I cant beat it. I have nothing but good experience with the Dextero AT
I have 35k miles on the Nitto Nomad Grapplers and they’ve done great. They’ve handled everything I’ve thrown at them. I would buy another set in a heartbeat.
I got Nittos recently and they’re great! Comparable to falkens and slightly cheaper as well. I havent done any off-roading yet, but they drive well on pavement, and gravel roads such as ones we have here are no issue. More grip than the OEM ones, at least it feels like it.
Objectively, Dextero DAT1 (budget all terrains from Priority Tire) on my beater truck. That said they are good tires for the money, just a little noisy.
Not sure what size you are planning or what platform, but I'll give you Nitto feedback FWIW.
17' cummins 35-12.50-18's .It will pick up rocks and throw them a lot. Maybe have 20-25k and are less than half tread.
I have the nittos as my daily tires, but I autocrosses on them for about 8 events before I got rid of them. Do not get them. They're terrible in the wet, wear very quickly with camber, scream when no where near maximum grip, you can never get them hot enough and I'm pretty sure the sidewalls are 90% jello.
I’ve put 200k plus on ridge grapplers in Wisconsin winters. They are terrible in the snow. Awesome off-road in mud, but not good winter tires.
