Tires NITTO or Vredestein

I had a set of Nitto Ridge Grapplers for around 50k miles... The Ridge Graps are great for off-road, good for on road (not as good as the Recons), but I have mixed experiences using them in the rain - they kinda feel splashy... But I was very impressed with the amount of tread left after I put 50k miles on them.

I just added the Nitto Ridge Grapplers to my truck. They look great! There's a bit more road noise than the stock Pirreli's, but that's no surprise.

they are great for cheap yet surprisingly well performing tires, i personally run the quatrac pro on my 94 miata and it performed impressively well in both rain and snow.

I have the Nitto555 G2's on my 2015 GT with the PP and the are great in wet weather, the hook up good

I run the "Vredestein Wintrac Pro" on msw 18's on my mk8 golf r and they rip in all conditions, I ran them all last winter and showed little wear, although I did avoid hot days.

Looks good. I did 275/60/20 E Range Recons back in January and have about 5k on em. Only one issue was the past few weeks I had a slight leak that ended up being three very small punctures from some framing nails. Plugged em myself and haven’t had an issue in a week so we’ll see if I fixed it.

Still no appreciable road noise, and the only noticeable mpg drop is in the city going light to light. On flat hwy the mpgs went down maybe 1 mpg over 120 mi. I’ve aired em down and taken them out on the beach and they performed perfectly. They’ve been on some back mountain roads in WV and had much more traction than the stockers.

Now, with the E rated tires vs the stock Goodyears, I did notice that the rear spin a LOT easier in the rain.

I wanted more aggressive tires but didnt want LT tires. These only weigh 48lbs compared to the Hankooks at 42lbs. I drove over an hour home from Discount and they handle great and no more road noise than the Hancooks.

New rubber today, Vredestein hypertracs, good tire ????????

I had Quatrac Pros on my last car. (2014 Mazda 6 Touring). They were quiet and rode nice, but I was underwhelmed by their snow performance.

Routine maintenance at VW dealer alerted me to tire cracks. Cracks would be an understatement. The tires had 14,000 miles on them. They are meant to be under warrantee. The local tire store and I phoned each Vredestein and left messages. I wrote the company three times. No response.
