They are the Terra Grapplers. They are not my tires, I own a tire shop. I forgot all about this thread. If I remember tomorrow, I'll take a pic. They belonged to a ranch foreman for one of the local ranches. They are too soft of a rubber to be running off-road for any lengthy amount of time. Let me put it this way. When he drives into town, it is 15 miles one way on gravel. Out there on the ranch, there are no roads. It is true, down to the bone off-roading. Put a pair of Geo-Trac TI-500's on. The Geo-Trac is a tire made by Nankang, and it is a real hard rubber, so we'll see what they do.

Yeah those look bad! I do not have to drive on gravel and don't really go off road much. I just wanted the tire because it looks good. I have about 4k on them now and they still look new.(Lets hope they stay this way for a while!) I drive 78 miles to work one way everyday, which I will be doing for another month. Thanks for the heads up and the pic.

These are the same tire/size I want to put on my 2010 Screw. Do you know how much each tire weighs? Also, did you notice a drop in mileage or tranny downshifting more? These close to being right at 33in? Thanks man. I know this is an older thread.

I don't know how much they weigh. You could probably find this on Nittos web site.

I am just now running these tires down to almost nothing. I got about 65k miles out of them. No issues at all.

Gravel? Bad idea.

Rotate, Yes, all the time.
