Default Nt420v

Does anyone have experience with nitro nt420v? I’m leveling the truck this weekend with a 1.5” motofab kit. I plan on a 1.5” wheel spacer and would love to run 305/55/20 420v’s on the factory wheels. I’m having trouble finding reviews on the tires. There is a few but not the best. Any input would be awesome.

I just got new tires and realized really quickly that those are not ever going on a vehicle I own.

I loved mine on my lowered Grand Cherokee Limited X.
They are the new tires from the 420S. I had probably 3 sets of the 420S, and really liked the truck/suv 420v

they look awesome. I love the tread pattern. I think they look even better if the writing is painted with white

I like clean black, but they are a good riding tire

I think they look pretty neat for tread design but in my opinion, the tire looks too whimpey to put on a leveled truck.
It would probably be okay on a stock height, however I think they would still look too small for the rear.

They aren't very tall to fill out the wheel wells and with a small sidewall and being so plain it would look out of place.

I had 305/50-20 on my 2003 and they looked like a very small rubber band tire on the rear of the truck. It wasn't too bad up front with no leveling.
I forget the tire but it was a highway tire with next to no sidewall design.

They are marketing the Luxury crowd and the tire looks like that is where it belongs, even based on the few gallery images on the web page. I think they would be good on a small SUV when the tire fills the fender wells but have that hint of an aggressive tread peaking out at you.

That is obviously an opinion, I just think that the naked sidewall on a 33" tire for a leveled 1/2 ton truck is out of place.

Read the reviews of the people that have had them in the rain or for a few months, seems to be more that don't like them, than do. I researched tires for 6 months before this last set and while everyone loved the 420S versions, the 420V gets much worse reviews. I have Falken Wildpeak AT3W on and as long as I need an AT, I'll stick with them.

I have had a lot of all terrain and mud tires and never really used them off road. I just wanted to go a different route this time. The 305/55/20 seem to be a good size and they are f load so definitely up to the task of a 1/2 ton. Just hard to find good reviews. The few I found said they were good in the rain but just looking for more reviews. Seems to be mixed so far

Look into Yokohama Parada Spec-Xs. They are very very excellent
