Tires NITTO or GT Radial
I've had both. Performance was about the same. Nittos have been wearing even. The RGs are noticably louder. Not crazy loud, but louder than the BFGs. They look so aggressive though which I love
Nittos for sure!!! I’ve had both, the BGFs are loud but last forever, not that great in the wet. The Nittos are the quietest big tires I’ve ever owned. On a light truck they’ll last long enough, I’ve had mine over 30k miles and still 12/32” left on the tread. Also some of the best all around off-road tires imho. They’re designed to throw mud and snow out the treads, so more traction and less sliding. Very surefooted.
I have the ridge grapplers on my stock 4Runner. What little off-roading I’ve done has been good. Not so great on wet pavement. They are quiet while still looking super aggressive.
I’ve had both and prefer the Nitto. Super quiet, aggressive look, and the performance is awesome, so far.
285/65/18 XL Ridge grapps here.
From my research, best weight to load capacity to performance ratios.
Probably will buy again.
I’m rolling on the RG’s I love them very quite relative to tread. They have performed quite well in many off-road scenarios sure they’re a little heavier, but they look sick and perform amazing
I run the nt555r2’s, worth every penny. Night and day difference in traction.
I run NT05 on my R32. I'm in AZ so rain isn't much of a worry, but the times I have driven it in the rain, I never had much of an issue. I think when they wear, and they will much more quickly than your average tire, they will become very tricky to use in the wet.
I have these on my Jeep. They are downright dangerous on anything but dry pavement.
I've had the Nitto Ridge Grappler in a 285/76r16 for about a year and a half now with about 19k miles. I just went in to get them rotated and they told me I should consider new tires, because they're down to 4/32 in the middle and 7/32 along the edge. Of course they also don't have a mileage warranty, so I'm disappointed to say the least and won't be buying them again.
