Default Nitto Terra Grappler, whose got em??

OK
I really want the Pro Comp Xtreme AT

BUT

I think it would be wise to get the Nitto.
DiscountTire carries them and they are right around
the corner from me. They are everywhere if there are
warranty issues. They are rated #1 by consumer reports
and how can you beat the price....

Cons
Do not look as aggressive as the BFG AT or the PC Xtreme AT
In any of the shots I have seen...

Tell me about them...
How aggressive do they really look compared to these others?
I cant compare them side by side as no place here has all 3...
How do they handle on the road, in rain and in snow?

I can't say much about the Nittos but I have the Pro Comp Xtreme ATs and I'm pretty happy with them. About 10k miles on them now and they are holding up pretty well. Handle good on trail. Just my .02 cents.

I ran the nittos on my dodge ram 1500 and loved them, they are a good looking tire, handled very well in wet conditions, and rode great on the road. I was actually suprised on how well they got traction while towing my Jeep down muddy roads. They dont look as aggressive as the pro-comps, but they still look good in my opinion. If price was the same I would get the nittos over the pro-comps.

I'd go for it. The only tire that looks sicker is that Pitbull Rocker and those are bias plys I think. The only downside is people say they are noisy and I can testify to this. Everytime some neighbor dude in an H3 comes down the street I can hear him for quite a ways. That new T/A Mud Terrain KM2 looks pretty intense as well.

I have the Nittos and I think their great, allot more aggressive looking in person. I park next to a guy at work who has BFG ATs and I think mine are just as bad looking if not more so. Plus, I drive 80 highway miles a day and find they're very quiet and handle well. I have 16000 mi. on them and they show no wear so far. I would buy them again.
