Input needed Toyo MT vs. Nitto Mud Grappler
I ordered The 35" Nitto Mudgrapplers, they should be in, in a day or so. I have been having second thoughts though. I am worried that they will be to loud and the only other tire I liked, were the Toyo MT's.
Anyone here own either of these or have driven in a Jeep with these? How was the drivability for streets? Both appear to be very capable off road, so my concern is noise and comfort, over off road ability.
Unfortunately if I cancel my Nitto order they will hit me with a 10% restocking fee, but that beats being stuck with a set of tires I won't like.
Thanks in advance for any input.

Found a review. Not as quiet as I remembered. But, not too bad it seems:

I'm running them. You'll get used to the noise with a little time. I just saw them rated in a very recent magazine(gorgot the name); they were ranked at about the top on mud,sand,rock , and the ability to balance them. Road noise however was not included in the comparison.

I have the toyo mt's. This is the third pair that I have owned. They are very very similar to the tread on the terras but are siped for better traction on rain and ice. got mine online and they are so much cheaper.

I'm running 35" Nittos and I really like them. They are not as loud as I was led to believe, and am quite surprised how well they ride. I would recommend them to anyone that was considering them. I dont' think you could go wrong with the toyo's either though.

On a trip is it annoying or would the stereo overtake the sound of the tires? I want to make sure it's not overboard... Is the noise that much louder than the BFG's that originally came with it? So far though, they sound doable.
