I ran Trail Grapplers on my 2011 and 2014 FX4s. The only negative I had with them is they were heavier than hell. Mine weighed 78 lbs each.
Agree, but with a D rated 8 ply sidewall, 13.25 width and 5/8 tread depth, they are one tough tire. Never had a flat crawling over a lot of shelf rock. I will take the extra 30 lbs per tire when climbing China Wall this summer.

Awesome setup. Dig the black rhinos. Been looking for a set of sprockets but they apparently don’t make them anymore :/ kinda like the “diamanté” but feel like they may be a little too far out there

Thanks man! Yeah...I was originally going to go with 18's, but they were out of stock across the country. Discount Tire told me that TSW actually makes these wheels for Black Rhino and that Black Rhino didn't even know when they would get more in. Overall I'm glad I stuck with the 17's. Lighter wheel, more sidewall, and cheaper never hurts.

I've seen those Diamantes....they are a cool looking wheel. These guys have the Sprocket in stock....it's the exact same offset as the Armorys that I have:

Seems like a lot of BR wheels are made third party lol... I fell a fool to that website as well, if you click on the add to cart button after you select 4-5 rims, it then says they are sold out haha! I got excited the first time and thought I had a set of sprockets but when I was about to check out they were out of stock.

I just went from toyo mt to Mickey Thompson mtz p3. I am very impressed with the pavement traction the Mickey Thompson offer, they are also much quieter than the toyo

I was actually thinking of going with these or one of the other mickey thompsons. The ridge grapplers are great for off roading, no question, but their limitation is their speed rating. When I first got them I never thought I would get anywhere near 99mph..... now I have the cobb stage 2 tune and.... yeah.

I have to say, after shopping for a good all terrain tire it's extremely difficult to find a consensus on something as subjective as 'the best'. Everyone has their opinion on what 'the best' consists of. Some of the tires that come up came out nearly a decade ago. While that's not an instant downcheck as they are still good tires, the fact is there are more recent options available that meet or exceed the performance of previous generations of tires. Also, there are a significant number of good and excellent AT tires out there. Searching out one that is reasonably quiet on the road, has a decent speed rating and also performs well off road is made more frustrating by the fact that review sites either review one at a time or don't review the things I'm looking for. I am not looking to make this thing a pavement queen, at the same time, I would like reasonable off-road capabilities while still maintaining good street characteristics. Admittedly I'm new to the truck scene so maybe my expectations are a bit too high?
