I ran the Nittos on my Gladiator from day 1 to about 28k miles. Great tire, never had any issues or punctures. Survived Rubicon and the 7 hour drive back immediately after. Not the greatest in snow, but I've had worse in the past on other vehicles, lower air pressure can help this.
Of those are the only two tires your considering, then Nittos hands down. I ran one pair of KO2s… that was the first and last time I’ll run BFGs. Never had an issue with Nittos.
Nitto in load range E. I have probably 350k miles on multiple sets and never had a flat and I've been from the Arctic ocean to Mexico and everywhere between. Damn near bullet proof.
Ran Ko2s on my last rig (xterra) and running ridge grapplers on my current (tundra). Ko2 handle great overall. Never had an issue with them except road noise. I find the Ridge Grapplers are great overall, except snow. They suck in the snow.
It comes wrapped with a new-ish set of Nitto Nomaf Grappler size 235/60-18 excellent for a Q3 or Q5 fitment. Nitto tires made in the USA and are mild A/T tires. Has 3PMSF certification. Only driven less than 3000 miles before deciding to go full 20” on my Q5.
If you're only buying one set of all seasons year round then nitto neo gen are really good value.
I've got those same tires and I love them. I'll be getting another set of them when this set is through.
Nitto neo gen seem to be the chosen stretch tires right now. I've got them on my FRS, but only a 215 over a 9"
Decent performance, wet isn't the best. But I havnt had any excessive wear issues or bubbling at about -4° squared.
I'm severely disappointed in these tires. My parents put 255/65r18 nomad grapplers on their 2013 traverse 2LT. Not even 200 miles on these tires and a stick punctured one of them.
I’m seeing the same thing on mine, not to mention my side walls are cracking on one tire. I am at about 60,000 miles so there technically out of warranty but still the fact that I’m seeing dry, rot and cracks all over the place is ridiculous. I’m in Maryland, it’s not particularly hot. But overall pretty disappointed in the next set of tires isn’t gonna be Nitto.
