Default Nitto Terra Grappler G2

I tried to do a search but it was unfruitful. So, is anyone running this tire in the size of 275/60R20? This is a P rated tire, I have always run LT tires on my last truck but do not tow as much as I used to so Im not sure if I want to lay down the extra greenbacks for a LT tire. Being a P rated tire it comes with a 65K mile warranty which I like to see. So what Im asking is mainly if people are running this tire set up on their F150 how does it handle? Does it feel soft or is it adequate? The way I am looking at it is anything has to be better than the Pirellis. Thanks for any input.

I'm probably going to get these tires in the next couple months too, but in 275/65-18. Would be nice to hear some feedback on them as well.

The 275/65R20 is an LT but the 275/60 is a P rated tire. It is an extra load though so it is rated higher than most other tires in its class. Im thinking I will just pull the trigger on them and see what they are like. The stock tires are P rated and they dont feel too bad other than the traction is horrible.

I tried the Terra Grapplers and didn't like them as much as the Toyo Open Country A/T II. the Toyo is available in that size and I know for certain that the 275/60R20 Toyo is a P-metric tire, not LT.

I have them in 285/55r20s on my fx. Put them on when the truck had 600 miles and now I'm just under 11k. It's a decent tire. Only time I have been stuck was on the beach and that was completely my fault. The truck has been at my ranch multiple times and does fine in loose gravel, dirt and mud. It's a decent tire, my only wish was that it was a little more aggressive but then again, it's an AT tire.

I'd also look at the BFG ko2.

For what it's worth, I have these tires but not in the size you're requesting info on. Mine are 285/55/20 which are E-load range. I had about 15K miles on my stock Pirelli's when I replaced them with these. They made the truck look a lot better, firmed up the ride a bit, and the tires are much more solid than the Pirelli's. I liked the idea of running E-load range tires on my truck because I'm always on gravel roads, construction areas, gas plants, and ranch roads and didn't want to worry about rocks, screws, or nails punching through the side-walls.

I lost about .5mpg after I put them on. They make more noise than the Pirelli's but it's a truck, and I don't mind the hum one bit. I'm running Boss Coilovers now with 1.75" of lift and they don't look too small.

The first pic is of the truck right after I got the tires installed and before the level/coilovers.



And this is after the coilovers were installed.

I purchased P rated, 305/55r20's this spring for that exact reason:
I don't need the LT rated tire.
  • More Weight
  • Stiffer Ride
  • Not Necessary for what I do


I couldn't be happier with my choice
I saw no drop in mileage going from a 275/60 P rated to a 305/55 P rated.

I have a set of LT Terra Grapplers on my Silverado and they are great.
