Nitto Terra Grappler AT tires?
 
I've got an offer of a set of these tires and wanted feedback. I'm thinking of installing them on my 2WD and have an option of either 265/75/16's ($540 installed) or 285/75/16's ($700 installed). I put 2" longer springs in the front, a while ago, but I'm not sure if the 285's will fit. If they do, I'd prefer to go that route. Anybody got any feedback on this tire?

I have never had a set....but have read a number of posts on them...think youll get average miles out of them. I doubt they will wear like a BFG or Michelin. But, they are a good looking tire.

Toyo M-55. A nice smooth, quiet highway tire that pulls through the mud better then just about any mud tire I have ever had. It's also commercial rated tire so it should wear for quit a while.

Apparantely, some claim to get close to 100 k out of the M-55. They are not cheap, but they are and awesome tire. Dont think you can go wrong with any of the Toyos.

I'd hope you'd get 100K out of them at $227 a tire ... a bit rich for my blood!

Now, back to the Nitto's ... :tttt:

The wife thinks the rims look too small too. Anyone got pics of 285's on 18" rims?

How about Eagle 187 rims with 285-65-18 Nitto's?????

The rims I'm looking at are 18x9's with a 5" backspace ... will these work okay with my 2WD?
