Default Nitto Mud Grapplers

So im looking at some new tires for my truck and cant keep my eye off the nitto's . Does any one have any experience with the nitto mud grappler as far as road noise and how long they will last appx: ie. normal driving conditions. Also a 35 should fit my truck w the leveling kit right??? Or does the rim width play a major role? THese tires look mean and have been wanting them for a while but had to let the tread on my procomps wear out. ITs just about upgrade time.... Your input would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Skkeeeeeeeeettttttttttt

I know they are loud ***** on the road...but they do good in the mud. Not sure about wear though.

My brother went through two sets in 30 thousand miles on his Excursion. It sounded like a swarm of bee's driving down the road. If you are into loud tires, these definitely keep up with super swampers in the noise department. Not a great tire if you do mostly city/highway driving.

A Swarm of bees is a great comparison.
I got my Hankooks. I heard they wear well. Wrong! Going back to BFG's come spring.....

I would stay away from the Nitto MT's for the reasons above.They are not good tires for the street, they are loud and you may get 20-25K if if rotate them every 5k.

Toyo's and BFG MT"s are both 10x better IMO.

My neighbor had grapplers on his 07 Super Duty. 22 in rims. I noticed that he had different wheels and asked him what happened.

He said that he couldn't get them to stay balanced.

He sold them on ebay after like 3 weeks on the truck.
