To answer your first question, they have a slight hum on the highway, but are very quiet. I am running them in 37's and not only do they ride great, but I honestly haven't even bothered balancing them yet, as there is absolutely no vibration, even at 80 mph.

They're no louder than any AT. Fits on the stock carrier but you'll need the extended bumps because on my Procomp rims they sat a couple inches out from the stock ones. I've put about 7,000 miles on them now including a 1,000 miles trip. So far they've performed very well. With winter setting in and a trip to Colorado and Nebraska coming up in a couple weeks I will get to see how they perform in snow.

I’ve got nearly 50,000 on mine and can probably get another 50,000 out of them if I wanted to. Still ride as good as the day I got them and perform great on wet rock and mud. Cruises right through sand.

Ridge Grappler vs G2
We love our G2's. 2 yrs later and Discount Tire said we're still at 100% tread and this is our daily. I also get 100k miles out of Big O A/T and on my 3rd set on my other truck. I really like the more rugged look of the Ridge Grapplers. I just have no experience with them nor their longevity. The G2's are very quiet on the highway and do well in snow and gravel/muddy roads. Not sure which ones I would honestly buy next. I think It looks like my G2's will dry-rot before the tread wears out just like my Big O All terrains. How many miles should be expected for the Ridge Grapplers?

I have the Ridge Grapplers. I like them a lot. Better gas mileage than the Trail Grapplers they replaced even though I went up a size when I switched. I was worried about them in mud, but couldnt tell a difference to be honest. I think they will do everything I need them to.

Wanted to get feedback on the Ridge Grapplers now that folks seem to have a few miles on them.... how are they in the wet? Snow? (Once you get over 20k miles +)
I have Duratracs (315's) with 52k miles or so and have avg of 5/32's with very uneven wear - I slide all over the place in the rain. Looking at the Ridge Grapplers in 35's.
