Looks awesome. Have you been off road with these yet? I'm just curious as to how the will do when the truck is flexing going over rocks and such.

Thanks again for all the complements.

No I haven't had them offroad, I have a beat up Jeep Wrangler for that. The truck is my daily driver that sees a some mud while hauling fire wood and going hunting nothing serious. but let me say I have no dout that they would perform well off road. I have a set of the older style 35" BFG MTs on my Wrangler and these things are quite a bit more aggresive.

I'm thinking about this size, but I'd like to know if they are too big for offroading. Anybody have this size and have had them off road?

To get to my river lot from my house I have a road that drops off my driveway and turns almost directly back the same direction you are coming from and the night before last I took the truck to the river and it did not rub. When I say it drops off it drops off pretty good, I told my wife that the tires would probibly get into something but they never did.

By the way I measured the tires again yesterday sitting in black top parking lot with 40PSI in them and they are only 33.5", I had said 33 before but that was a ruff measurement in grass. My suggestion would to be measure your tires and see how much difference there is, but I am going to guess you will be fine if your truck is set up similar to mine.

Your truck looks mean with those tires. I went the trail grappler route also and couldn't be happier, great tire.

Tyler,
I'm not sure about the mileage I still haven't put a tank of fuel through it yet and this tank will not be a good tank to judge by because I thought I was having some troubles with my tuner and have been messing with it. But it does not look like it knocked it off to bad. I am planning on a trip with the camper (22' Salem) this coming weekend so we will really see how they effect the truck.

They are getting popular quick, I cant keep em in stock at work and Nitto is having a hard time keeping up with availability on Trails, and Terra's.

I ran the Terras before these and liked them, but this time I wanted a mud terrain and this size is perfect for out trucks. I can not believe that no one else has seen the demand on this size and started to produce them. Also the Nittos being made in the US and the price is less that most of the other name brand tires make these things so attractive.

By the way these things are getting quieter the more miles I put on them. Definately a good decision on tires.

How'd your tires do on your trip? Did they rub on your mudflaps?
