Don't mean to be too harsh on you, but there is a search function here that will get you quite a large amount of info if you use it. Here, I made it easier for you. Click this --> Nitto Terra Grapplers.

But using the search doesn't get you my opinion.....

I have the Dura Grapplers and absolutely love them. I also have the Nitto 420 and so far have no problems with them. I will say this too; when the 420's wear down I'm swapping them over to the dura grapplers. Both tires are quiet; Dura Grapplers are quieter and both offer exceptional dry traction.

Well, since you love your Nittos so much, why haven't you told us so sooner - you slacker.

Glad you added your input. I've selected the Nittos for my next tires and it's nice to hear that people like them.

But I used to think that the "Name Brand" tire manufactures like Goodyear and Michelin were the best but, now-a-days you cannot discount brands like Nitto putting out high quality 1st tier tires.

I have Nitto 420s and I love them for the traction and look (for a street tire, not O.R.). No noise, good wear so far and got them at a great deal. I will probably go with little smaller than the 305/50/20's as they stick out about 1.5"s, next time. I will just ahve to see how long they last since they seem to be pretty soft.

I have the mud grapplers, and have around 50,000-60,000 km on them. They are noisy, but are wearing really good.

I have 285/65/18 Terra Grapplers, they are not noisy and a great A/T tire IMO

I running the Nitto Terra's. The wear really good and noise is very low and thats with the 35's I am running. Oh if you didn't already now Toyo makes Nittos, you will just notice different sizes in the branding but the rubber compond is the basic same.

Oh and them new Nitto's look good too.

Sure you can . . . . .
Ever notice the majority of trucks running Nitto's are asphalt queens ?
Their easy to spot from some distance,just look for the K&N sticker in the back window
