What tires to go with now?

Extended Power · Dec 2, 2012

My truck doesn't see snow, mud, gravel, or any other "Off Road" adventure. (unless the thieves take it there)

I have worn out Toyo 325/60/18 Open Country AT's.

I really like the looks of the Nitto Terra Grapplers, and see they make a 305/60/18 now.

The truck isn't lifted, and I have about 5-10 psi in the bags in the front just so hey clear when turning lock to lock.

Any other street tire in the above sizes that are quite, and look good on our trucks?

Dont know if they come in that exact size but Nitto 420s or Toyo Proxes are great all street tires. I run 305/50/r20 toyo proxes on my truck and love them.

Thanks, I'll look em up.

Proxes st-2 works well.
I personally love terra grapplers

Cooper Zeon LTZ's look great.

Nitto 420s, on my second set, had 35k when I sold the last set as Half tread. Great wearing tire.

Agreed. Great tire.

Do they make a decent size tire for 18's though? I noticed Dustin mentioned Proxes too. It seems that the tires for the 20's and 22's are the tallest in street tires. I could be wrong though.

Yeah that's what I'm finding out...nothing in a 33-34" tall tire with an 18" rim.

Sounding like I will go with the nitto terra grapplers in a 305/60/18 or the 325/60/18.

Dzchey21 · Dec 3, 2012

Not really a factor in that wheel size but load rating will be better with the larger tire.

Either way I think you will be happy with the terra grapplers, not a master of anything but a jack of all trades kinda tire.

I am running the Falken Wildpeak. I dont travel into mud but I do pull a toyhauler onto Pismo beach and they work quite well. Better traction on dry/wet pavement then my toyo mt's. Headed to Lake Tahoe for New Year so i'll see how they do in snow. I am running 325/60/18. Balanced out without much weight as well.

Hankook Dynapro ATM. Had the Nitto's before, and getting stuck on wet grass, with posi, is rather embarrassing to say the least. The Hankook has a similar pattern, but with wider voids. 99% on-highway, towing enclosed trailer 10-15% of the time. Very happy with them over the Nittos, and they are wearing better. Running 325/65/18.

X2 on Hankooks Dynapro ATM , Had put lots of miles on them( 55k) just sold and they still had another 20K on them easy , great tire , went to a 38 now i will never find a highmilage tire

G Racing · Dec 5, 2012

I will be trying out the toyo at 2's as soon as they come off back order

bad12jr · Dec 5, 2012

I have Toyo at2. Like them so far. Only have about a 750 miles on them. They are a 285 75-16. Can't wait to see how they do in the snow and try them on some creek beds soon.

Sent from my x2 somewhere

You should look up rocky mountain wild peak a/t I believe it's a discount tire brand. We have a set of those on our f150 and like the way they handle

Terra graps are the shizz.

had 312/60 18's and loved the way they looked and they are quiet. did good for me off road and in the snow. but yours are fair weather needs only i guess so that doesn't matter. :thumbup:
