Nitto Ridge Grappler 35's

Interesting that the Ridge Grapplers hold up better and have no warranty. According to my research the 35x11.5 RG's are heavier than the 295/65's which makes no sense. 35's are 71.4 lbs and 295's are 69.4 lbs. Not much of a difference but still strange. How's the ride quality and performance of the RG's vs the AT III's? Have you noticed any difference in MPG's? I think I'm sold on the 35x11.5 Ridge Grapplers but I'd like to hear your opinion on how they compare.

No rubbing. I had 35x12.50's before and they rubbed the UCA's. Thats why I went with 11.50's this time around.

I'm sold on the 35x11.5 Ridge Grapplers. I'm impressed they lasted 76k miles. Your MPG sounds low to me for your newer 3.5L Ecoboost. My 2011 3.5L eco gets 16.5 average MPG city driving. I thought that new 10 speed transmission would make a big difference. I've got 3.55 gears and a 6.5ft bed on my 4x4 screw so it's about as heavy as a F150 can get, minus the 5.O. I'm glad to hear the Ridge Grapplers have good wet traction. I figured the AT III's would have better wet traction because they're snow rated.
