Default Nitto Trail Grapplers-tread life

Just got mine the other day, and i got them because i know Nitto makes a great tire. I had terra grapplers on the other truck and i think they are a 50k tire. Ive been reading up and Nitto really did their research with this tire and tried to get the best of everything. I read that they really tried to optimize tread life. Does anyone know the tread life of the trail grapplers? Does anyone have them and for how long?

I had some on both of my trucks. 265/70-17 on my f150 and 315/70-16 on my f250. I didn't care for them on my 250 because they didn't do well in mud or even wet grass. I got about 50k out of the 150 tho. Still not a big fan of them.

I didnt expect anyone to have driven them down yet, they havent been out that long. Sure you're talking about the Trail Grapplers?

I'm also interested if anyone has had them for a substantial amount of time. I have dune grapplers now but thinking about the trail grapplers next.

I'm curious to how well they ride on road. I had a set of the Terra Grappler's on my 4Runner and they were great. I just want to go with a more aggressive tire and one that can perform well in snow. The Terra Grapplers didnt do so well in snow for me.

same here. gonna move to CO in the near future so i need somthin that does good in the snow. kinda like the GY dura tracs. supposed to be good on/off road and are rated pretty good in snow. i love the look of the trail grapplers but not sure how snow worthy they are.

Ive read they are pretty good on tread life, they did some new stuff to increase it.
