    Opinions on the Nitto Terragrapler A/T?

    Hmmm. somethings poopy on that deal. Nitto D's are $133. Even the load E's are less at $161. Tire dealers make more on the BFG's than on Nittos. He entered $177 manually I would guess. Quick typie fingers. You got great tires anyway. I think I'm going back to BFG's due to poor tread life...

    Opinions on the Nitto Terragrapler A/T?

    " I considered them until I went to Discount Tire and they were MORE than either the 8 or 10 ply BFG AT KO's. I went with the BFG's...out the door with replacement certificates for $870. This data point is from the Abilene, Texas Discount Tire on 7-8-06. " No way unless you went to a local...

    Opinions on the Nitto Terragrapler A/T?

    -wear / Looks like my 295's will be gone at about 32K. The BFG AT's they repalce went 50K. -puncture resistance (sidewall) / Pretty much like an the other AT tires. -chunking / The compound is a bit soft and they will tear on shrp rocks. -noise / Excellent. -balance / Good -snow/ice...

    Dunlop Radial Rover RVXT

    Toyo M55 - I love that tire - if only they made them in a larger size I would own a set today! Why don't these guys perk up and make these in 295 and 315 sizes?

    Dunlop Radial Rover RVXT

    I've considered those tires - Dunlop RVXT. They look like they could work very well, especially on wet pavement. I've run the old " Rover " AT's in the past and they wore well. Pretty hard compound, but the price was right. Tire Rack reviews put the RVXT in the #4 slot in the AT category...

    Be Careful Buying BFG AT/KO

    In other words - they are great moderate temp - dry contact tire - i.e. southwest - baja. They are not good on wet pavement or in mud of any kind, especially in cool climates. Best of their time - but surpassed by many other tires now....

    Be Careful Buying BFG AT/KO

    Wear like steel - but spin like grease on wet pavement after the first 15,000 miles or so.

    Nitto Terra Grappler vs Bridgestone Revo

    OK - so I can't remember everything anymore. I'm getting old. My Excursion GVWR is 8,900#. My 2002 V10 truck specs at 7,232# dry stock. The stock 325HP has been bumped to at least 375 with mods. The torque is probably hovering arounf 500# now. I've managed to stuff another 250# of crap...

    Nitto Terra Grappler vs Bridgestone Revo

    Nope - they are perfectly aligned and balanced. The driver of the GMC uses his truck hard and fast. No uneven wear anywhere -the tire just plain wore out in no time flat. He uses everything hard and fast. The Superduty driver is me and I drive nice and easy. Mostly highway miles and the...

    Nitto Terra Grappler vs Bridgestone Revo

    I've run both and am running both currently on different trucks. The AT Revo's are not "just like the MTX's" you currently have. They are a better off road tire and IMHO a better on road tire. I don't know if they will give the same service life. The current set of Revo's on a 97 80 LC have...

    Nitto Terra Grapplers 295/75R16 with OME 2.5" ... pics

    The only thing about the Nittos is - how long will they last? They are awesome on wet pavement and many conditions, but I don't know that they are going to give good long term service. I have a set of 295 75 16's on a 8,000# vehicle and as it stands now I really don't expect to get more than...

    255/85/16 BFG MT anyone?

    Pretty sure they were 34 9.5's. Actually I think they are still in production. Specter used to have a photo of a red 60 series just like mine with 34's in one of their catalogs circa late 80's. Used to air them down to 10 psi for sand.

    255/85/16 BFG MT anyone?

    I ran 34 9.5 15 BFG AT's on a 60 and really liked the ride, performance and look. Basically about the same tire you are talking about other than tread.

    FYI: Bridgestone Duelers A/T Revo’s

    Jim - I can specifically answer your question re BFG's. After going through probably 10 sets of BFG AT's over the past 22 years I will never buy another set. They are over priced and there are far better tires available. Specifically three: Bridgestone AT Revos, Nitto Terra Grappler AT's and...
