Who's running Terra Grapplers?

I'm needing new tires soon and these are on the short list. I'm looking at the 285/75/17 or 295/70/17. How are they holding up? How many miles have driven on them? Etc, etc....

50,000+. Finally took them off because they are the most boring tire I've ever owned. Handle superb, super quiet, awesome in rain (never had mine off road), tow incredible! But I was tires of looking at them after about 10,000. Guess it depends on what you're personally looking for.

I just put a set on my truck, only have about 2000 miles on them but so far so good. I really like the ride quality and the fact that they are so quite. My ears are still ringing from my old xtreme at's. I like them, and the price was right.

I have 36k on mine - This is the 3rd set I have had over the years and trucks. I love everything about them. I have half the tread left so hoping to get 60-70k out of them.

Ithem on my F-150 for 7k miles then went with a MT. They rode good and were quiet. I felt the same way as GALAXY did. iI wanted something more aggressive. I don't really like the AT look, but those where the only 35" tire to fit a 22" wheel at the time beside the Super Swampers Iroks.

13k on mine so far. I like them. Ive had them on the pavement, mud, and rain. All around a good tire in my opinion Ive only rotated them once and they have hardly and sign of wear on them. I wouldnt take them in a mud pit or anything, but an average day on the job site hunting fishing....it will handle any of that. pics in my gallery if you want to take a peak at em. I will say this, my next tire will be an MT. i like the looks of them better.

Mine are 295x70x17s and have 3000 miles on them,they look just like the day I put em on. These tires are the best At tire for the money imo,took very little weight to ballance and ride great!!!!! I've done a little offroading and they do pretty good for an At.The tread depth was surprisingly deep too.

Oh yea...one other thing I forgot to mention about the set I had... I literally NEVER had to adjust or add air to those tires. I have never ever had a set of tires on any vehicle I've ever owned hold consistent air pressure like those suckers did...too bad they're soo boring:-)

Thanks for the replies. And yes, I find them a bit boring but I'm afraid that I'll be sliding around to much with an M/T as I drive a bit on the aggressive side.

I got about 25k on mine and still love them. They outlasted my first set of moto 951 wheels. Dont go chrome..... Mine rusted and started peeling. Once they started peeling that was covered by the warrenty. I got a set of Helios wheels now. I just toke them off I wont chance them getting ruined threw the winter. I am trying to figure out what tire to put on my old Factory 17's with the 3" leveling kit my truck looks funny with the little 225's.

I have the 295/70/r17 and they are the best all terrain tires I have seen. A friend of mine has a jeep with 315/75/r16 and he about got stuck in a mud hole. Well lets just say that a crawled through there in no time with zero problems. I absolutely love them and I have never gotten stuck i mud or up to 7 inches of snow. I strongly recommend them.
