Honesty.. Nitto Ridge Grapplers

[tooloud10]

Are the Nittos rated for Severe Snow? If not, that alone would be a dealbreaker for me.

More psi's might help. 36 seems a little low. I run 50 psi on my 37 KM3's around the streets.

Only the EXO Grappler. The Ridge is great in deep but mediocre in the hard pack.

That makes no sense.

Classic case of Load C vs Load E

Yep, I am working on taking pics and proving this next chance I get. I run a repair shop and we do tires .

Twice in the last year my guys have accidentally installed Load C on F250/350 (originally equipped with E) and during quality inspection I have caught it both times.

Load C at 80 psi(well over max) with a big PSD engine sitting over the axle looks flatter than a raptor KO2 at 15 psi, and a Load E at 35 doesn't look low at all. You would be hard pressed to look at it and say it needs air.

At 38k miles I went from stock K02s to Grapplers and experienced just the opposite. Noise was obviously better but I also think the handling and smoothness was improved. Handling in snow and rain has been great. No issues.
It’s really not a fair comparison old tire to new tire, but I like the Nittos.
I do a lot of highway, am at 80k miles and the noise is slowly returning. I will seriously consider Nitto Tera Grapplers for my next tire. They won’t look as good as Ridge Grapplers but might be a better blend for me (highway vs off road).
Anyone running Tera Grapplers? I am curious how they look.

Tera was replace with Recon

Nope,that the problem having.
