Tires NITTO or BRIDGESTONE

I worked for Bridgestone before. They make decent tires. Indy 500 and Destination lineups are great tires.

The only reason I avoid recommending Bridgestone Blizzaks is that while they are an absolutely incredible preforming tire, the softness of the tire wears out quickly and they tend to have a higher ticket price.

I've been very happy with the Blizzaks on my R.

Whoever said blizzak are terrible in the snow is a lunatic I have to TRY and get the traction control to come on, and cane take corners covered in ice at 40-50mph and the car doesn’t even wiggle…now my preference is Michelin Alpin Pa4 but I had these in my garage from a couple years ago…I bought them then 2 weeks later the wheel got a crack, so I got the Alpin on the 19” wheels and did that the last 3 winters, now the wheel is fixed and the basically new blizzaks are great just got back from 5 inches of snow and ice I’m driving the speed limit everybody else has their hazards on and/or crashing into curbs.

I highly recommend Bridgestone Blizzaks. I put those on my stock steelies and bought a nicer set of aftermarket wheels with all season tires for Spring through Fall.

I'm with you. I've clocked about 7000 miles on the Nomad Grapplers now, and they are a noticeable improvement to the truck in all areas but fuel economy.

So now that I’ve had 1k miles on the Nitto Nomads I figured I’d drop a review. These tires are noticeably better. I feel confident on turns that they are gripping and never sliding. They do great in rain, gravel and mud.

I have the original 20” Bridgestones on my 21, with about 20k miles. Should be good for another 5k or so. Not great tires, but fairly typical OEM tires for me.

I remember going hot into a turn, getting on the brakes, and sliding sideways with no warning. It wasn't that fast, but still a bit disturbing. I replaced them this year with a much newer set of S04 PP.

It's doesn't matter what you do. Seems like Bridgestone tires only last around 40 ish. Learned that with the quiettracks.
