Default Nitto Trail Grapplers

Soon I will be getting my lift and my next project will be to get some 35s on! Are Trail Grapplers the way to go for both daily driving and when I head up for some trails? I've done research but I would like to hear from you guys.

I love my trail graps but I would go with AT's of some sort if mine were a daily driver. Especially if I lived where there is real winter.

Started with 33" TG and now onto 37" TG's. I'm also a daily driver on mine and I love them! I can walk through mud and tackle any trail and still get me home w/out problems. No complaints here.

Love my Trail grapplers are 100x better then my previous MTRs. I've had them for 2 years only 8,000 miles and I get them balanced and rotated every 3,000 and still look new and have stayed in balance. My MTRs never stayed in balance and weight had to be added every 3,000 miles.

Running Trail graps on both my Rubi's but will be going to a K02 for winter on my daily Rubi. The trail graps really suck in snow and ice.

Ill probably go with the Exo grapplers sense they seem to fair well on snow and ice as well as on trails. It's 6 months of strait winter in Idaho I swear!

Then why not go with Duratracs? Best tire I've run in winter..., it's an AT but looks aggressive. I run them every winter here in Ontario Canada. Currently use 37" MTR's over summer but next set of summer tires will be the Nitto Trail Grapplers or the Toyo Open Country MT .... Still researching the 2

My Trail Graps have done pretty well in Oklahoma winters (we just get ice and no snow). But they really shine off road! I've been impressed the the traction, tread life, puncture-resistance, and on-road handling. I will be purchasing them again for my next set.

Living in Arizona and loving the 35" Trail Grapplers (35x12.5x17LT). We especially love the heavily-built side walls... whatever we can do to help prevent a side-wall puncture out in the wilds is good. We find them a bit noisy at freeway speeds, but that's a small price to pay for how great they dig into the trails. Love 'em!
