Tires NITTO or OEM Volkswagen
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 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 switched to 295/30 on 18x11 rt660s and the car was completely different. Very responsive and very good turn in.
Nitto Motivos. They came with the car so I can't compare. I'm sure they're nowhere as good, but seem like a good value based on the price. They skip just a bit on a hard launch even when warmed up. Good in the summer. I live in S-FL, so no experience with winter roads. I did some racing on a cool night and broke loose coming out of first. Pretty good on wet roads for the most part as long as you don't do any racing.
I burned through 2 sets of tires this same way! Was going about 70 on he fwy one morning and a large strip decided it had enough. was flopping around the wheel well and was super loud.
My ridge grapplers slide in the rain more than any tire I’ve had. I’ll go to turn and I won’t even be going fast and I’ll just keep sliding the way I was going.
I've tried Nitto's twice and hated them both times. The compound is horrible and traction sucks.
