Question Nitto - Terra Grappler

Looking at some new tires. Anyone have any experiance with the Nitto Terra Grappler tires. Also I want to go larger than factory. Looking at 295 / 70 / 17. Anyone know if these will fit without adding any lift. (currently factory height).
Thanks for any input.

I am on my 2nd Set of Terra Grapplers. Each set ive ran has yeilded me nearly 10,000 miles.. which is considerably more than any other set. I am on set # 6 on this truck and have just rolled 35,000 now. the first few sets of tires never lasted over 6000 miles.. the first set of Falkens made it 3800 miles, even with proper rotation.

Currently I run the 10 ply 315/55/20 Terra Grapplers, nitrogen filled. They are great on and off road, with minimal road noise for the tread design.

I give them

I have had several sets of Terra Grapplers and I really liked them. Unlike KC I got over 35k on each set as long as I kept them rotated at every other oil change.

They are a soft tire but IMO a good tire.

I had a set when they first came out, I did not get 20k out of them and did not like the squirlly feeling they gave my truck on the road.

Thanks all for your feedback!
Does anyone know if the 295's will fit standard height?

I am torn between the nitto tg in a 295-70-17 and a Hankook mt in 285-70-17.Both good looking tires and priced about the same.Just not sure which 1. The 295 will fit great without rubbing.A friend of mine has them on his dodge.
