I have them with not many miles on them, the traction is unreal in soft stuff. My grandfather stuck his old school tractor in the ditch today and I was able to pull him out of the mud with my Jeep. I was surprised cause that tractor weighs a ton, and it was black gumbo mud.

I hate mud, but I hate getting stuck in the mud worse. Mud Grapps can be as loud as they want and wear out whenever as long as they never leave me stuck in some sludge.

I have dune grapplers on my Jeep and terra grapplers on my wifes Titan. I find they are a little stiff. I have 31 lbs. in all tires. Are the mud grapplers stiff also?

Really? My brother has a 2007 Dodge Mega cab 6.7L Cummins with 6" fabtech and had 37" Nitto Mud grapplers (will never buy again). They did well in mud but not well enough to make up for the fact I could hear him 1 mile away at 60 mph, they were bald at 21K miles, and were roughest tires I've ever experienced. But he also has it modded enough to beat a new mustang GT...(That's really fun in a big big truck with black smoke in their window!)

i dont have but 3k on mine but i've made up my mind that its the only tire i'll be running from here on out....they are freaking bulletproof and i love the SOUND they make...i barely listen to my stereo anymore...just listen to the tires....and they're not stiff at all imo if you're running the right amount of pressure

x2, I find myself doing that too. My MP3 player battery has been dead for awhile, but I don't care.
