Tires NITTO or DEXTER

Terra Grappler G2 is a great tire for all-around use. I drive 90% of the time on pavement and 10% on trails and sandy terrains here in Florida. I had my Terra Grapplers for about a year now and haven’t had any issues so far. Not too aggressive either where it gets really loud on highway driving and steering wheel starts to vibrate. ????

I have the Ridge Grapplers on my truck and love them. They ride smooth on the road and really aren't that noisy at all. I was pleasently surprised with how nice they are.

I’ve had both. Liked the grapplers better and run them currently. They perform better in the rain. That’s pretty much the only difference I was able to notice

That said Nitto Ridge Grapplers are a good compromise. Considered a ‘Mud Terrain hybrid’ but have great street manners.

Nitto Ridge Grapplers are a pretty good middle ground. Aggressive and capable tread pattern with sidewall lugs for offroading, but softer and quieter than full on M/T.

2018 explorer tire upgrade 265/50/20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers

I have a set of these, 6 years. Never a single issue. They are a little harder but nothing like what you would expect from the comments.

I’m replacing them tomorrow with a new set 6 years to the day from when I 1st put them on.

They are amazing tires. Hands down the best I have ever owned in 30 years of driving.

I had NeoGens (205/50r15) and liked the way they looked, and they handled great in dry weather... But would break loose in wet pretty easily. And while I had them I didn't notice the road noise until... I got some Continental ExtremeContact Sports (205/50r15) These guys have much less road noise, except at slower speeds where you can hear every single tiny rock and pebble tossed up in the wheel well lol. But they look fantastic and are incredible in dry AND wet weather!

They are nitto neo gen they supposedly say these are great for wet surfaces but the other day my car slid from a small turn going slow.

Have ridge grapplers on my work truck and I don’t like them. There isn’t a lot of sipping grooves so they aren’t great in anything sloppy like wet snow or mud
