I havent had them....but have not heard much good about them. They wear fast and are too soft especially under the 1200+ pound Cummins.

I had the 31/75/16`s on mine
had about half tread left on them
they are soft and feel really spongy when driving with them
if you look at my wreck pictures you will see only one had air left afterwards
I did do some brake stands with them on
once blacked out the shop for 10 minutes with em

Luke, All I have run since I got this truck are the Nitto Terra Grapplers.. The rear tires last me about 10,000 miles.. I buy 315/55/20 10 ply. ANd I do alot of burnouts, and pull a camper or gooseneck alot! The fronts get about 30-35,000 out of them.. I love my Terra Grapplers..

A friend of mine had them on before his BFG all terrains and he said he would never get them again. I think he said like 20,000 to 25,000 miles and he isn't into burning tires off.

Umm.. I saw one somewhere.. Fully dressed LBZ was about 890 lbs.. I cant see 130 lbs more weight creating that much more wear on the tires though.. a fully dressed 24v weighs like 1000 lbs iirc.. Might have been 1050lbs. I saw one with turbo and all on a pallet recently
