Tires NITTO or Laufenn
i know this thread is old now, but i had the nitro terra grappler g2. i think they’re on the g3s now, but they honestly weren’t any louder than stock. not the most aggressive looking a/t, but i didn’t mind it because they were so quiet
I bought Laufenn for my Cadillac XT5. So Quiet & So smooth , just what I wanted.
I have them in 35x12.5R18 on my 2500. Have about 26k on them and they look about 1/2 to 2/3rds worn. I live in socal so not a ton of rainy days but the days we have had rain, they've been better than the stock Firestones.
I had a set on my 18 ram 1500. They were difficult to keep balanced at first, buy finally found a shop that could do it. I rotated them every 10k miles and got 55k miles out them. No issues in rain and live in Florida.
Living in the PNW, I was hesitant to buy them due to the wet performance reviews. I've had them for about a year now, and I've had zero issues with them in the rain. They've been a great tire
I have the 35's on my truck. Been a few years and never had an issue with them. I'm in FL so no snow to deal with but lots of rain.
I’ve got the RG and can confirm comparatively quiet on freeway and not good in the snow or even rain slick slick slick.
I had Ridge Grapplers on a 2021, stock size on 20 inch wheels. They were quiet and good MPG. The Ridge Grapplers were sketchy on wet roads while the Defenders are lighter and make the truck feel 1k lighter.
I've tried Nitto's twice and hated them both times. The compound is horrible and traction sucks.
I just replaced Ridge Grapplers on my 2020 Ram 1500. Worst tire I ever had. They were horrible on wet pavement, packed snow and ice.
