So far, so good

after running Cooper tires for the last 10 or 15 years, these Nitto tires are making me wonder why I stuck with the Coopers so long, these tires are quieter, more nimble [ if that's the right term for a 2500 pickup] and have handled on and off road very well so far, we'll see about winter here in PA in a few months

Really can only rate these tires as a winter tire so far.. have about 5k miles on them and no noticeable wear so far. I drive out west with a 2500 ram pulling a 24 foot enclosed trailer and needed a good tire for pulling in and out of unloved snowmobile trail heads. They did absolutely awesome for just that. ABSOLUTELY AWESOME STOPPING ON ICE/ SNOW! They really do eat up snow and keep pulling. Loaded they had no road noise.. when I drive around without anything behind me the tires do have a bit of noise to them anywhere from 50-80, but I would say less than the BFG Ko2 I had. Was between this tire and the Falken Wildpeak AT3W and I chose this one. However I did get to ride in a friend's 2500 with falkens and they were awesome in the snow and had absolutely no road noise on the highway.

I have a set on my 2012 Ram 1500. I do landscaping so my truck 8/10 times has a trailer loaded attached. have ran tires for 35k miles now and still have 70% tread left. Love the aggressive look, also very quiet tires. Will say though, to get the moneys worth out of them you must rotate and re-balance these tires every oil change.

The Nitto Exo Grappler AWT is an all-terrain tire that's designed for use on light trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs, and features a reinforced construction with a damage-resistant rubber compound, and aggressive lug tread.

Features & Benefits

All-terrain tread
Black sidewall
Three Peak Mountain Snowflake certified for use in moderate to severe winter weather conditions (on select sizes)
Pre-drilled for easy installation of TSMI #15 studs, where permitted, for added traction in winter conditions
Protected by Nitto's limited manufacturer warranty for first 25% of tread depth, then pro rata coverage down to last 2/32" of tread depth

Nitto's Exo Grappler AWT is designed for true four-season traction, with a durable tread compound that mixes natural rubber, high-strength polymers and wear-resistant materials for flexibility and traction at subfreezing temperatures. The aggressive lug tread features staggered blocks with a dense network of sipes and extra biting edges, and is pre-drilled for easy installation of studs, earning it the Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating for severe winter service. Stone ejectors protect the casing against damage from rocks, and a 3-ply sidewall with large sidewall lugs guards against punctures and cuts. The tread pitch of the Exo Grappler AWT is randomized and computer-tuned for low road noise, and like all Grappler tires, the Exo Grappler AWT features a plain black sidewall on one side and "lizard skin" texture on the other, making it easy to customize your truck's appearance.
