Anybody got any Terra Grapplers mounted up and have pix? I'm getting closer to buying some to put on some 17x9 rims with -12mm offset. The tire size I have in mind, after I level the front end, is 305/17/70 but I'm wondering if I should consider a different size. Would be great to see a profile shot of these on a RAM, or even a view from front or behind.

 

I have had mine installed for almost 50k miles and am due to replace them. They look amazing and fit perfect. I have stock 05 17" wheels though so not sure how they would be on after market wheels for fitment. They are already really close to the upper ball joint so any change in offset may be an issue.

I don't think they will be my next choice when replacing them due to the loss of power at highway speeds and the floatation effect on deep snow. If i didn't deal with either I would get them again. These are very wide and tall tires for snow and stock gears.

 

No leveling or lift of any sort on my truck, exact tire your asking about. Can get your more pics if you want.

 

Based on discussions in previous threads, i think the rims i have my eyes on, with -12mm offset, the backspacing should put the tires very close to stock. Granted i have 20" rims now, but i believe all should fit fine. If anyone believes otherwise, please let me know before i pull the trigger.

 

Those are 305/70/17 terra grapplers on moto metal wheels....

 

how much was the quote you got for the nittos? im looking at getting soem as well.

 

I don't have a quote yet. I'm almost afraid to ask. I've found them online for $265 each, with free shipping but then would have to pay for mounting and balancing. I won't buy mine that way because my dealer would not appreciate it, I'm sure. I buy tires from him when I need them and he helps me out in plenty of ways in the meantime - free rotations and repairs for the life of the tires and I've also carried flat golf cart and ATV tires to him on occassion and he has fixed them for me for free.

 

Are those the MM 951's? I think my son just picked those out as his fave's. Quality pretty good on them? Paint holding up? If so, do you remember what offset they are? I'm looking at getting them with a -12mm offset/4.5" backspace.

These are the ones he's got his eye on:

 

Yes that is the wheel. What offset I couldn't tell you, I bought them used with the tires.


They are a decent wheel, the center caps are junky but they are cheap to replace. Other than that I would say the only downfall to them is the special lug nut they use.

 

WOW $265 each is HIGH.....i put some 295/70/17's on my dad's ram and got them for $185 a tire.....
