    I had them on my avalanche... Good tires. I wasn't real impressed with the tread depth though.

    Have them in 295/75r16
    Good offroad
    Low road noise for an a/t tire
    Wear very well.

    I'd buy them again but they don't come in 35x12.5x17

    I've Got Nitto Trail Grapplers now.

    I have them now, I believe in that size, I've had them for about 18 months 24,000kms. I bought them in Vancouver, which is very rainy and they performed excellent. We just moved to a place called Fort St John in Northern Canada. It's pure ice and snow, thought I'd need winter tires, but these terra grapplers have actually been pretty good. I slip sometimes but I think I will be able to save myself from buying winters at least this year.

    I've had them on my truck for 35k miles. I like them, I'll probably go with them again when these wear out. Looks like I should have another 10-15k miles left on them.

    I ran these in a 305, they were pretty damn good in sand and there was hardly any road noise.

    I ran some 195/70/17 for a while. Woulda kept them on but i kept getting stuck off road with 'em. Awesome on road tire and not too bad off road. It had to be pretty slick and sloppy on the trail for me to have problems!

    Good Tires can't say anything bad about them.

    I've had mine over a year now, still look brand new(didn't drive it at all during the summer though), they have pretty good traction till you hit mud(i got 600$ of body damage and I'm 2x4 so that may have had something to do with it) but they are quiet and look pretty good. I'd get another set if my mom didn't get smoking deals on general tires because of her job.

    For your money you might be better off getting the Toyo Open country AT. Nitto is owned by Toyo - the terra grappers notoriously wear out fairly quickly because of the softer rubber compound (which grips well though). The Open Country is basically the same tire but made from a harder rubber compound that lasts longer than the terras.

    I agree with this. They are a softer rubber and mine seem to be wearing quicker than other tires that I've had. With that said though, I think that's what makes them handle great in wet and snow.

    Best picture I have of my off-road with them and you can see them fairly well:

    i just put a set on my 2011 OR 4x4 about 2 weeks ago. i've only put about a 1000mi on them, but so far i really like them. significant traction increase in snow and on ice compared to the bullshit rugged trails that came with the truck.
