Default Nitto Trail Grapplers

First I did search, but I just couldnt find the threads these were talked about on already, maybe cus they were subject changes and i just searched the titles but oh well... brings me to the subject at hand

Called my local tire shop (who majority of the times) has the best prices on tires but they wanted $1247 out the door... hmmm

I was kinda hoping they would be around $1100, i mean im kinda torn cus I wanted to stay around $1000-maybe 1100. but part of me says once you get up that high whats a lil more? and then the more logical side says thats not what i was trying to bidget myself for...

So for anyone who was wondering about what pricing would be, its going to be around the same as Nittos other mud terrain tires. And BTW that quote was for 35x12.50x17s

Some of the lowest prices I've seen.

I plan on getting the 295/70/R17 Trail Grapplers pretty soon.

Anyone running these on their ride yet?

hopefully you have an 18 or 20" rim so you can get the 35's were as the 17's only allow the 295/70 which is like a 33" tire and i wanted 35's but they are a great looking tire and should perform as well to

Yeah true...hope you find some good tires in your price range. Maybe try the Terra Grapplers or other All Terrain tires.

Or were you lookin for an M/T specifically?
