Let's not lie to the guy lol. I have trail Graps on the F350 right now, and there's a bit of road noise. They're mud terrains. All mud terrains will have that glorious hum. Nothing like the mud Graps that were on my F150, but there's still a hum

zmadams is right... Nitto is made by TOYO and they are almost the same tire... with that being said I have 35 inch Nitto Trails and love them

Made by the same company or not, the experience and difference in the ride of the two tires is like night and day. I prefer stable over squirrely lol

Nitto trail grapples in 295/70/17 are 1079 and toyo open country in the same size are 1099 what a tough decision!

I put 35/12.5r18 open country mt tires on my ford when I leveled it. Love them. But I had to put wheel adapters on bc 35s would rub I'm the inside on the frame of the truck. The only reason they would rub was bc I still have factory rims. If you had some aftermarket rims with a offset you wouldn't have that problem I believe.

I've had a set of mud graps and trail graps and was so disappointed with both. Bought the trail grapplers after my mud grapps only last 25k think I would get more mileage and better ride. Got about 30k on my trail graps and the ride like squares... Buying toyo mts soon as I get the money

It strikes me as odd that everyone's opinions on these particular tires are all different lol.

I'll take some pics of my trail graps. I rotated them every oil change (~3k miles) until about 15k miles when I discovered one was out of round after it busted a tie rod end and cost me an alignment. Called nitto and they told me to take it to a dealer and the dealer said I would have to buy another tire and send it to Cali and they MIGHT warranty it.. Still riding it
