Question Nitto Terra Grappler?

I just picked up a set of nitto terra grapplers for $160! Still has 6/32 tread left on it still, so couple questions.

How many more miles can i expect out of these tires?

How is the mpg with these?
- i have the oem 20" tires,275/55/20 and they have a somewhat similar tread, the tires im putting on are 325/65/18, can i expect similar mpg or less?

it would be great to have more but hey cant get everything i want

cheers!

not to bust your bubble or anything of that nature, but for my 325/60/18's i payed 180 a piece for brand new ones.....How long they will last will obviously depend on how they were takin care of before you and how you will take care of them. I had the stock 17's before switching to 18's and my mpg went down about 3 mpg.

i can get the 325/65/18 for 190 a piece brand new
the ones i got were 160 for all 4 and are in great condition. ive got a tuner so i hope that helps out a bit. what size tires did you have before hand?

oh ok,sorry that is a good deal then, i thought you meant you payed 160 for each of them...my bad. I had 255/70/17. Of course some of the mpg loss could be from me wanting to hear my loud exhaust.

yeah i think so aswell. any idea how many more miles i can get out of them?

i have 275/55/20's on there already so mileage isnt great just wanted to know what i might be expecting after i put the new tire and rim combo on

im yet to put on an exhaust once i do that im sure itll go up a bit depending on my setup but back around average with the tires and rims

I think you'll have some rubbing issues with those 325x65x18's unless your truck is lifted and not just leveled. Those are 35x13x18's.

how bad would rubbing be, i know full lock ill be expecting rubbing, how much trimming would be needed to combat that? and how little trimming would get it to the point where rub isnt noticeable
