Tires NITTO or GT Radial
I just added the Nitto Ridge Grapplers to my truck. They look great! There's a bit more road noise than the stock Pirreli's, but that's no surprise.
I have the Nitto555 G2's on my 2015 GT with the PP and the are great in wet weather, the hook up good
Looks good. I did 275/60/20 E Range Recons back in January and have about 5k on em. Only one issue was the past few weeks I had a slight leak that ended up being three very small punctures from some framing nails. Plugged em myself and haven’t had an issue in a week so we’ll see if I fixed it.
Still no appreciable road noise, and the only noticeable mpg drop is in the city going light to light. On flat hwy the mpgs went down maybe 1 mpg over 120 mi. I’ve aired em down and taken them out on the beach and they performed perfectly. They’ve been on some back mountain roads in WV and had much more traction than the stockers.
Now, with the E rated tires vs the stock Goodyears, I did notice that the rear spin a LOT easier in the rain.
I wanted more aggressive tires but didnt want LT tires. These only weigh 48lbs compared to the Hankooks at 42lbs. I drove over an hour home from Discount and they handle great and no more road noise than the Hancooks.
Nitto NT555 G2s call for 35 psi
I bought them last year for my Nissan and they have been really good. Very grippy, low noise and smooth. The compound feels to be on the softer side but haven't seen excessive wear yet.
For what it's worth, I've loved the Nitto Neo-Gens. Have been flawless in the rain plus very quiet and decent adhesion all-around.
On stock wheels I'm running Nitto 555 G2's at 305/35 on all 4 corners. Best tire? No. But for the price and treadwear they do fine.
NT05 isn't great. And I hate the 555's - the orig were cheap and OK but the G2 is worse, you can do better with Firestone Indy 500's or Continental ExtremeContact both are about 300TW.
They are great off road and absolutely terrifying in the rain. Would not recommend.
