Post up your Nitto Ridge Grapplers!

It's not even about showing your tires at this point but your clean ass truck

 

​

Thank you!!!

 

Can never go wrong with bronze on white.

 

35/12.50/18 installed last week with the lift. -12 on the wheels. Love these tires much more so than the KO2s I had on my F150. Quieter than expected for how aggressive they appear. Handles the wet nicely and some slushy wintery mix we got Saturday.

 

Nice! Is that a drop-bracket lift? I need some 35's in my life. How are the mpgs? The only thing i don't like about our tires is that they're pretty heavy.

 

Yes 6” BDS.
And yep. Sure are heavy. Recalibrated with Hypertech. Seeing 15ish in town. 18ish if I keep it under 70 on the hwy.

 

15 isn't too bad at all. I'm getting not much better in the city with my 33's.

 

In full disclosure my daily commute is 12mi one way, mostly 45mph with 6 lights. I get a bit less when I'm running errands, etc. Just filled up today, 15.6mpg for 240 miles with 100ni of it being 70+mph.
i didn't buy it for efficiency (we have a MDX for road trips). I'll regear eventually.

 

My mpgs are worse than they should be because my commute is local (5 miles), but basically 1 big hill with a couple of stop lights so I can't really coast most of the way. We have a RDX (v6) as well but we might trade for an MDX soon with kid #2 taking up the extra space. The RDX always feels like a sports car after driving my truck lol.

 

Hey @rlx02 how much caster are you running on your setup? Looks really good!

 

2.9 and 3.9 - for some reason the shop couldn't get them even. Crappy firestone service. I might manually try to just push it out as far as I can by myself and then bring it back. But yeah once you're above 3 it shouldn't rub unless you have wide wheels.

 

I really think the 285/70r17 Ridge Graps complete my mall crawler look nicely

Still do want to do some trimming though, I just barely have no major rubbing on normal pavement use but if I would if I were to go over anything more rough.

 

Love the MDX. It’s a 17 we bought new in Feb. has 18k on it already.

I have some trimming to do on my setup. Cab mount and maybe a bit of plastic above it.

 

Got about 4" of snow on Christmas Eve and day! Rare sight in the greater Seattle area. Ridge Graps handled great! Didn't even need to put it in 4wd for the most part.

 

Just curious if anybody had come from cooper st Maxx's too these??

I know they're basically the same tire and I love my coppers. Wondering if these had any kind of edge

 

absolutely love my ridge grapplers! I came from pro comp mt2s and they were so loud that it gave me a headache
