    3"lift, Monster XD w/ 285/65/18 Nitto Trail Grapplers, Blacked out emblems, tinted front windows, BHLM
    I have 18" xd monsters. I don't off road much. Mostly commute and long drives. What would be a better tire? I want the nitto trail grapplers in 285/65/18. But before I pull the trigger, how are these tires on street use. Will they wear faster? I want that aggressive look too btw! And I will have a 3" lift soon.

    I'm open to all suggestions!

    I had trail grapplers on my tundra, they held up great, sand, mud, they wore very well, but sucked in the rain, slick as snot!

    BFG all the way IMO.
