Nitto Tire Releases New Off-Road Tire: Trail Grappler M/T
Nitto Tire U.S.A., Inc., announces the release of its new off-road tire, the Trail Grappler M/T. The tire blends some of the off-road performance of the Mud Grappler with the on-road comfort of the Terra Grappler, to create a tire that is both aggressive and quiet.
"The Trail Grappler M/T is engineered to be a trail-ready tire without compromising on-road comfort and performance," said Anthony Lee, Staff Engineer at Nitto Tire. "We used advanced computer design and analysis to test the functionality of multiple designs before building the tire. This allowed us to engineer a tire that will perform to our customer's expectations."
For off-road performance, the sidewall combines a 3-ply high turn-up construction with a thick rubber compound that cushions the tire and helps prevent punctures. On the tread surface, the blocks are configured to provide additional biting edges that command lateral stability and enhance forward traction. When navigating tough terrain, the balanced void ratio and stone ejectors help clear debris from the tread to provide continuous traction.
For on-road comfort, Nitto's engineers used advanced sound analysis equipment when developing the Trail Grappler M/T to reduce noise levels commonly associated with off-road tires. The internal construction and tread design also help optimize treadlife. Two wide steel belts provide a stable base for the tire and increase tread strength. This advanced construction provides optimal uniformity and reduces irregular wear. On the outer shoulder block the reinforced grooves maintain block stiffness to further extend the life of the tires.
The Trail Grappler is available September 2009. Initial sizes will range from 32- to 37-inch overall diameters with popular sizes for full-sized trucks, Jeeps and SUVS.

I can not say enough good things about these tires.they are very quiet for an off road tire, good on wet roads, snow and deffinatly mud. very little cupping though i do keep them rotate. last but not least the wear factor of them is very good. i run everything i own to its limits. at about 14,000 miles i am about half tread with which i am very happy. spinning digging burnout contest etc im game and still half tread.they are great!

01 Silverado 1500 Z71. 3" Body 2" Level.
305/55-20 (33x12.5x20) Look Great, Ride Great. Seem to be wearing good. About 10K miles. Had to add a steering stabilizer to eliminate death walk. 65psi is best all round.

Wanders all over the road sucks for towing fuel comsumption

2003 Ford F250 diesel with 35x12.5x18. I had the toyo mt's on my truck when I bought it. Then I went to the nittos. The toyo's sucked in the snow and ice. The nitto's are great in the snow and ice. I live in Spokane WA so the winters can be a little snowy and icy at times. The toyo's felt like a good car tire on the highway, in the road ruts and towing, they always held firm. The nitto's feel like your dirving on a waterbed in the ruts and towing. They are a soft lug and they flex and wander all over the place. For a off road tire I would say there great for a all around tire with more highway and towing driving they SUCK. Towing my boat and construction trailer is sometimes scary. I am selling them with about 5k on them and going to the Pro Comp Extreme AT. I will write a review of those after some mileage. The pro comps look like the old Sport King AT which I had on a Tundra and a Tacoma and loved.

Horrible Highway Tire

Am giving a 4 because the off road performance going through ugly stuff mainly sand and rocks. On the highway they are almost dangerous on my Raptor. Highway speeds they walked and felt very unstable. Played with the AP quite a bit but still could not get them to settle down. Took them back to Discount where they came off.

I purchased the LT265x70-17's for my 99 Ford F150. I went from stock all season tires to the nitto trail grapplers and am very happy with them. I was suprised as to how quiet these are on the road! Really not much more noticable over my stock all seasons. The tread looks very simular to the older BFG MT's that are on my jeep but without the noise. The sidebiters and lettering design is pretty wicked too. For me, these tires were a toss up with the Mickey Thompson MTZ's but my tire guy recommended the trail grapplers since I often use my truck for towing a 30ft travel trailer.

I have 285/70R16's on a Chevy Colorado with a 4 inch suspension lift, let me tell you, these tires are freaking awesome! I took my truck on the Wipsaw trail in the British Columbia interior, and it handled better than anyone of the other trucks in my convoy (toyotas, jeeps). Rocks, no prob. Mud, no prob. Sand, no prob. Snow, a little prob.. only because it was 4 feet deep! I totally recomend these to anyone that doesnt want to get stuck!

I have a 99' 7.3 f-350 powerstroke dually and have been running these 33's for over 2.5 years now and have had them for over 30,000 miles. i would totally get these again for the tread life and look alone. BUT the hookup capability of these tires are amazing, im able to get to and through stuff pulling trailers that my buddies with un-trailered trucks and toyos mts struggle through! NOT to mention i had the toyos before these and burnt out in 8 months with regular 3-5000 milage rotations.

I just removed the 35" Goodyear M/T's off my 2005 Jeep Wrangler and put on the 33" Nitto's. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the Nitto's looked even BETTER than the Goodyear's - which I wasn't expecting. As soon as I drove on the Interstate at 55-65 , I noticed how quiet and stable these tires are. The Goodyear's vibrated between 40-45 mph. (couldn't get those suckers balanced).
So for now I'll give them a 9 until further notice. I am very happy with these tires.
