I have the nitto terra grappler g3. Was significantly lighter than the ko3s I usually run.
I only run Nitto now. BFG let me\nDown a few too many times. That said, ridge grapplers are on two of my cruisers and the newer Terra g3 on the LX. Both perform great in heavy rain, on/off road, rock, mud, etc.
Nitto Ridge Grappler 285/45 R22
I have Nitto Nomad Grapplers on mine and really like them.
Rides much smoother than stock, less bumpy and not noisy at all.
So I just put 285/60/20 nitto recon on my 22 tundra from stock tires. I don\u2019t me if it just me but I feel like there a lot of road noise from these tires.
Put Nitto Rodgre Grapplers on the truck, I am happier with the road noise, however I noticed that Driver+/Highway Assist doesn’t keep speed steady anymore.
The tire size on the vehicle is not common and I’m seeing prices of $300+ per tire, more expensive than my F-150.
As others have said, bulging is a sign that the internal structure of the tyre has failed. As frustrating as this is, it's new tyre time.
I changed my OEM Nitto Terra\u2019s that came on my Pro out last week for Baja Boss AT\u2019s after only 15K miles. They were scary dangerous on wet roads.
