Falken Rocky Mountain ATS

Alright so I am getting the 18" XD Addicts in black and originally wanted to get the nitto trail grapplers, but my dad has made it clear that he isn't paying that kind of money for a tire. Do you think the Falken RM ATS will still look good? It still looks like an aggressive tire, but is good on the road...this tire is my last resort pretty much if I want new rims, I hope it will look cool.

How cheap are these things if Nitto trail grapplers are called expensive around them?! Trail grapplers are cheap like 302 bucks a piece

I apologize for sounding sarcastic, but why don't you pay for your own tires ? Then you can get what you want

You call $302 cheap? Then what do you call $174? That's how much these cost. I just bought 4 of them and so far I'm not happy with them at all. They made my 2001 SCrew super squirrely on the highway. If I even breath on my steering wheel, the truck turns.

I much prefer my old BF All Terrains over these but they discontinued my ply count. They used to cost $170 and the higher ply count is $224. I just couldn't pull it off so I tried these. Blah!!!

Hopefully they break in better.

Why not just pay the difference between the two.

I saw a set of these on an F150 in Wilcox a few weeks back and I have to say they did catch my eye from across the parking lot. I had to go get a closer look to see what they were. Thinking of getting Falkens for my wifes Pilot when shes up for new treads.
