I only run Nitto now. BFG let me\nDown a few too many times. That said, ridge grapplers are on two of my cruisers and the newer Terra g3 on the LX. Both perform great in heavy rain, on/off road, rock, mud, etc.

Pros: great in heavy rain

Vehicle: Lexus LX

Put Nitto Rodgre Grapplers on the truck, I am happier with the road noise, however I noticed that Driver+/Highway Assist doesn’t keep speed steady anymore.

Pros: improved road noise

Cons: Driver+/Highway Assist issue

The tire size on the vehicle is not common and I’m seeing prices of $300+ per tire, more expensive than my F-150.

Cons: expensive tire prices

Vehicle: Mazda

As others have said, bulging is a sign that the internal structure of the tyre has failed. As frustrating as this is, it's new tyre time.

Cons: internal structure failed

Vehicle: Mazda 6

Pros: replaced OEM tires

Cons: dangerous on wet roads
