Tires look really nice and still aggressive. The only thing that makes them not look as mean is that they don't seem as wide. How wide were your old Mud Grapplers?
I went 4 wheeling a lot, but not many miles get accumulated in a day wheeling. The Grapplers were 13.5 wide and same with these. But the nubs on the Nitto's gave in like an extra 1/2"-1" either side.

They do. I drove in some snow last week and they still left a reasonable tread pattern depth. But on wet pavement they were like racing slicks. Can't wait to see how these will do.

I think it looks really agressive still. They have a little bit of a military truck tire look to them. (a good thing)

id say they look a bit more aggressive then the nittos.... just cause of the side walls and center tread patter plus i bet they are a hell of a lot quieter.... I hated my nitto mudd grapplers although they were bad *** in the snow and mud and they were awsome in the sand after being deflated! I dig those irocs man... i almost bought those myself but I went with the cooper ltz zeonz
