Default Bigger tire/ nitto vs toyo

I'm looking into getting bigger tires for my truck Its has a 2inch level and its has 285/70/17 on now with no rub o and I'm wanting to go bigger but not to big. Something like a 295/70/17 with a wheel with negative offset just don't want them to rub. Anyone have anyone pictures of there truck with 295s on? And what do you guys think between nitto trail grappler vs toyo open country

I would say toyo mt. I've had the trails and now have the mud grapplers. Will be going with toyo next for sure. Trails are a very good tire tho. Just tired of road noise and I hear toyos are just a good quality tire

I have owned three sets of Toyo M/T's and got 65K miles out of all three sets. I recommend contacting www.rimzone.com for a quote. I have found them to be the cheapest around!

We had Toyo M/T's on our F350, and I hated those tires. Maybe they just suck on one ton trucks, but I won't own another set of those pieces of crap.

I had Nittos on both my F150, and on the F350 now, and I love them. They seem to be cheaper in price too.

Both of those tires are made by the same company and are almost identical other than the tread pattern being slightly different. Get whichever one is cheapest because they're both good tires.
