Which tire would you choose? Nitto Trail Grapplers or Toyo Open Country MT's

As you can see from my Sig I chose the Nitto's. I have been very happy with them. I have just over 10,000 miles on mine and still a ton of tread. They are starting to become louder, but that is to be expected with wear. Handling is great and the looks are great. The sidewalls look wicked, that is probably my favorite part of the tire. I was looking at getting the Toyo's, but so many people jock them and have them that I did not want to be a conformist.

Toyo owns and makes Nitto so which evetr you can get a beter price on is the one I would get. They are almost the exact same tire (slight diff in thread pattern). I got the trail grapplers bc I got a beter deal on them.

Well satisfied with the Toyo's on my old truck, 23k miles on them when I sold the truck and they still looked new!

This is such a debate on this forum about which to choose. i like the toyo's but i feel it should be up to the driver/owner. but your truck looks great. nitto def has some of the best sidewall designs imo. keep an update about mileage bc i have heard good and bad things about mileage but its mostly here say

another vote for the nittos here, have about 20,000 miles on mine so far and have at least 65-75% of my tread left. I wouldnt hesitate to buy another set.

I have had the toyos on my truck since December of 2007. Only rotated them a few times my truck needs shocks and these tires will not wear down. They still have tons of tread. They also look and drive great. Can't wait for my next set!! They will def be the Toyo MT's
