Tires NITTO or GENERAL TIRE
I am a Nito guy I love those tire I recommend the nitto ridge grappler very good highway tire but yet you still have some bite for off-road and overland
I put those tires on my R1T when it only had 15k and half the tread left, because the OEM are so damn noisy. I love them, completely. Much less noise, and a mild efficiency improvement.
I’ve posted this several times. I bought a set of rims that had used Nitto Grappler A/T tires on them. I got 50k before the wife run over something and cut one. I bought a new set and am at 80k plus now. Expecting many more.
The rugged-looking alloy wheels of the prototype, shod in General Grabber A/T Sport tires (275/60R18), sound like a fitting choice for the production model.
I have been using this specific tire below for almost 20 years. Had my 2006 for 11 years and now my 2017. They have great wet road handling. Excellent tread wear. I get about 70K miles a set. Not sure what your price range is but don't skimp on tires, especially on a truck. You want that wet road grip.
Update 6 months later: I haven't gotten a chance to test them in snow despite getting them in January. It was a very mild winter. But I noticed immediately how much better they handled in the rain. Compared to those these made a real difference and I felt safer. I don't notice any more noise with these.
Basically, both are pretty good tires and at an equal price or a little bit more, I'd take the Generals...
On my third set of Ridge Grapplers. They are the perfect tire in my opinion. Quiet, comfortable, long tread life and great in all weather conditions.
Mid range brands that are decent but relatively cheap are General and Cooper.
the Nitto Grapplers are horrible on wet pavement. Too bad, because they worked well for me otherwise.
