got them nitto's ordered!
 

its about time for new tires and so i went and got them ordered 33x12.50-20 nitto mud grapplers should look pretty good on my 04 ram 1500 4x4. i went back and forth between nitto and cooper ltz. but when i seen the nittos on dodgenitto's truck they sold me. putting them on the stock 20" rim and already leveled the truck i dont for see any problems do you???
but my question to owners of this tire how are they in the snow/ice?? the guy at discount tire told me they sucked but he drove a ford tempo so dont know how he knows. and excatly how tall are they are they true 33" and how wide is the foot print ?? when they get put on next week ill post a pic
thanks fellas

Just remember to rotate them every 3000-4000 miles to get the most out of them! I run mine at 35psi in the front and 32psi in the rear, unless I am going to tow something heavy! I have 30,000
miles out of them and plan on getting many,many more!
I live at 10,300ft, I drive on snow 7 months of the year! I truely believe that it mostly has to do with the driver! As long as you have tread, 4WD, and the ability to drive on the snow you will do just fine! I drove them for two winters now and have never gotten stuck, but have pulled out over a dozen people! Just go to walmart and get some sand bags and throw them in the bed over the axles! And yes there are better snow tires out there, I am not saying they are they best by no means, I am just saying you will do just fine! In 2WD it is worthless on the snow! You will get stuck in parking lots! 4WD And you will be ok!

After about 10,000 miles on them you will start getting comments from your passangers; "are we about to take off??" Because it is pretty loud! Sounds like a prop plane about to take off! Big truck sound! I Love It!!

nitto? do you get so many miles out of yours because of the fact your on snow a lot and all that? i think they would wear a lot faster here in south florida being on the hot pavement all the time

The roads get plowed pretty good! So They have seen a lot of Pavement and Dirt roads throughout there life! It is just the side roads that have snow all winter, Like my road in the picture above!
