You know, a lot of people from the midwest say that. I wonder if it's a regional thing since Toyo and Nitto are owned by the same company.
When I set out for tires when I lifted my Grand Cherokee, I was originally looking for Toyo AT's, but my local tire guy could only get the Nitto Terra Grapplers from his distributor here in the southeast...

I'm sure why but thats the way it is here. A lot of people also say Nitto's are a bit cheaper. The only place i could find them was at Sears for $230 a peice when I can get Toyos for $220 at a local tire shop. Doesn't make much sense but thats western Kansas for ya, a bit *** backwards. lol
Do u like you Nitto's??

Love 'em so far. I got them in Ga. when I was up at the farm in early August. I couldn't resist giving them a try and decided to go fishing on a farm where I've got permission to fish his 35 acre pond which is located in a low spot behind two plowed fields.
It had just rained about 2" the two days before and there was a good bit of red clay mud that had to be gone through to get back there.
I found the tires threw a LOT of the mud off at relatively low speeds. I was quite surprised they actually did as well as they did.
I'd personally not put a set on my truck, but I go a lot of spots where I need a more aggressive tread. On a daily driver when you want a quiet tire with great wet and dry pavement performance and still be able to take it for some mild off-roading, camping, fishing or hunting if you don't venture WAY off the beaten path, they are perfect...
