: Nitto Terra Grapplers... anyone have them?
GMC-2500HD 08-07-2010, 04:17 PM I'm thinking of getting some Nitto Terra Grapplers 265/75/R16E for my '06 Dmax. I will be using them all year round- highway, around town, towing, and snow plowing in the wintertime.
Anyone have them? How are they in the snow/ice/heavy rain (wet roads)? Treadwear?
Thanks!
Matt
ILduramax 08-07-2010, 04:50 PM I have them. Mine are 285/75/16s on 16x8s and are D rated though. I only have about 2000 miles on them so I can't say much about them yet. I do like them so far though.
I recommend the E rated tires though like you are planning to get. I have to run these at 60 psi to keep the sidewalls from flexing too much. Running them at 50psi I could feel them flexing when I would change lanes to pass.
Blk04HD 08-08-2010, 12:21 PM You will love them in the snow and ice, best snow and ice tire i have ever owned. I have a set of 285 10 plys on my stock wheels for winter use and have almost 60k on them.
05DuramaxHD 08-08-2010, 09:25 PM on my 2nd set, 1st set has 58k, sold the truck to a guy I work with and he is still driving on them. Just bought the 2nd same size and they are great. they both are 325/60/18 D's

jwedel1777 08-09-2010, 01:03 AM They are a good tire, but of the several sets we have had on farm trucks, I didnt think they lasted very long when driven on gravel roads alot. Gravel will wear down a tire quickly anyway, but I thought they would wear down faster than others I've used.
sdhunter 08-10-2010, 02:57 PM I like the performance of the tire. But I doubt I will get 20k miles out of my 265/75 E rated tires.
whitedmax2007 08-10-2010, 06:40 PM I have 285/65/18 E rated and I love them. I have 31,000k on them right now with maybe 5k to 10k miles left before replacement.
irogers 08-10-2010, 08:01 PM I have 315/75/16's They are D rated though. I pulled a trailer and grossed at 28K and had no problem with it. Pulled good and strong and didn't squat too bad. I have prolly 10,000 miles on mine so far with very little wear. They work well off-road as long as your not in knee deep mud and I havent had a chance to try them in the snow yet. I have a buddy with an 05 D-max and he plows all winter long he swears by them.
jadjr 08-10-2010, 08:25 PM I have had 2 sets and when time to replace, I will get them again!
fishprowler 08-10-2010, 08:42 PM I had a set of 355/65/18's on my 6.0 gasser and loved them.
hard2kill 08-10-2010, 09:15 PM my favorite tire!!!!! i loved mine and have got 7 of my buddies running them now and everyone loves them.....low noise and smooth even at 120mph.....great in rain and amazing in snow......got 30k out of mine and beat the death outta them....drag strip,plowing VERY aggressive driven etc.
Schlick55 08-10-2010, 09:22 PM I put keys and a set of 305/50-20's on my wifes '04 Tahoe, it is an all wheel drive and they seem to be wearing evenly and slow. It had some Cooper street tires on the wheels and living on gravel was destroying them. For the price they are great.
05LLY2500HD 08-12-2010, 07:29 PM I'm suprised this many people like them I have a set on 18"s and absolutely hate them..everyone i know personally have said the same. squirrely in the rain, and i can't drive on wet grass or they'll just spin. jmo
