Terra Grappler vs Dune Grappler

Time for new rubber, wore out the old Terra's and was gonna go with them again til I saw the Dune Grapplers. Anybody running them or heard good or bad? I'm running 325/65R18's on a 6" lift on my 2005 F150.

Heard the dunes don't do well in the rain but don't know personally.

Supposedly, they work well in the sand, but that's about it.

Thanks for the responses. Dunes are out, saw them in person today, and not a big fan.
Now looking at the Pro Comp Extreme At's since they're running their 3 for 1 deal. Seem pretty comparable to the Terra Grapplers. Also what benefit would i see running 35x12.5's compared to the 325/65's?

A 325/65-18 is basically a 35x13.00-18 tire so they will be about 1/2 inch wider than 35x12.50-18's.

So I guess the big question is will I see a difference in performance one way or the other? Handling, gas mileage, etc. And I'm guessing that the 1/2" will not be that noticeable visually looking at the truck. Once again, running a 6" Fabtech lift on an '05 Lariat Super Cab, with Helo 18" Maxx 6 rims.
