You'll like these tires, but I don't rub at all, maybe because the "body styles" are different? ENJOY!

Nitto Terra Grapplers vs. Bridgestone Revos
I've narrowed it down to these two tires, but need a little help with my decision. I'm leaning toward the NTG's (they look cooler), but am concerned about road noise. All of Nitto's marketing materials state that they are quiet. If this is true, I would like to hear it first hand from you guys. How are they in the rain? I'm a deer hunter, so I'll only be off road in the winter. Otherwise, I don't want to listen to 'em. Second choice, the Revos (white letters turned inside, of course). Thanks for your help!

I have around 5000 miles on a set of Destination MT's and they are holding up excellently. Low road noise, great wear so far and great in the mud. I have used them about 60/40 on/off road. Also note worthy IMO is the miles I traveled on graded woods roads.

Those BIG tires would be great for running down those "Varmints" on the BORDER!

nitto
I am running 265-70-17 nitto terra grapplers.They are great in ice and snow and ok in the sloppy stuff for an a/t.The wear life is not so good.they would be great for a jeep or small 4x4.Overall good tire for the money.The best set i had were goodyear wrangler mt/r wore like iron.My brother has same truck 2003f150 super crew fx4 and he just got some bfg mt with only about 50 miles on them its hard to say how they are doing.has any one ran the cooper discover stt i would like to get some input on them.

Just bought the Goodyear Wrangler DuraTracs for my flareside, 285/75r16. Had them about a week and took them up a couple of trails. Nothing insane, but still a bunch of loose scree. Handled great. Good on the road and off with very low road noise. Look pretty sick to boot and winter rated.

I would have to discourage anyone from buying the Pirelli ATRs in 275/55 20. Only got about 28,000 out of them and I have been pushing it on getting new tires for a while. I drive a lot of gravel and these tires showed wear real quick. The OEM BF Rugged trail in 18 inch lasted about 50,000 under the same conditions. Don't know what my next tire will be but I have heard good things about michelins but it is hard for me to pony up $250 a tire. Think I like the Cooper Zeon from everything I have read. Can find those for about $170 a tire.
