Nitto Mud Grappler owners please visit !

I am considering this aggressive looking tire as my primary use for a street tire.
This is high on my list for my next replacement in a size 37 x 13.50 x 18" to accomodate the install of my 6" "Superlift" suspension system on top of my 3" PA body lift.

What type of milage lift have you current or past owners gotten out of these Mud Grapplers.

Thanx for your replies

I have a friend that just put a set of 35's (mud grapplers) on his 06 F150, this thing sounds like a freakin jet liner going down the road. You cannot hear the radio in the cab over the tires. If that is what you are looking for have at it. Good luck.

They will be loud as hell suck on road and get crappy mileage. I would definitely not get the mud grapplers. I recommend toyo open country m/t! Best overall tire out there.

They where at the store b/c A guys special ordered them and didnt pick them up, so he sold them to me for $280 a peice and gave me one for free

So $280 x 3 = $840 / 4 = $210

I did a quick search on the Toyo Open Country M/T tires in the 33 x 12.50 R 20 size and wanted to make sure I found accurate info - are they really $450 per tire?

Thread Hijack:

On a 2007 4x4 Screw with a 2" leveling kit on OEM 20" wheels, would these 33 x 12.50 R 20 Toyo Open Country MT tires fit?

Thread Hijack Over.

You can fit a 35x12.5r20 on your oem wheels or a 33x12.5r20 on aftermarket wheels.

Hey sorry i love the look of the Nitto Mts but most people i talk to say they wear out fast and are pritty loud, I did talk to one guy that had 38grapplers on a dodge and said there was 40k on them and still have alot of tread he just rotated them everytime he got his oil changed. I have Toyo mts, I would have to say the best tire out there. all i hear is a nice little humm while driving they dont rattle shack, bounce me everywhere, and toyo makes nitto. Ya any way with 37s and 3.55 gears i get 11.1 miles to the gallon when i drive like a grnadma, when i drive like a crazy kid around 10miles, thats both city and highway cant seem to get it to go up
