I have trail grapplers, and love them! Nittos are heavier if weight is an issue for you. They run more true to size than BFG's.

Mine took very little weight to balance. I have nothing bad to say about them. I've had them for a year.

You'll find an equal amount of people here who will endorse one or the other with their reasons for why their choice is best. Both great tires, both good on and off road. I love the MTZ's but I'm sure there are some on the forum who will tell me that they're crap and suggest a better tire! Good luck on a choice!

Have had both and here's my 2 cents. Bfg cheaper lighter good offroad. Thinner sidewalls which make for better ride but more prone to damage. Nitto. Little more expensive great offroad thick cut resistant sidewall. Heavy. If choosing between the two over again I will choose the nitto. Next set I'm goin mtr

Hands down the Nitto, but depending how you plan to use it, the trail grapplers may be a better choice.
