Default Tire question again

I have a 2 wheel drive 03 f150. I want to be able to get through a little mud. Should I go with the Nitto terra grappler or the trail grappler mt?

Terra's do descent in little mud for an all terrain but the trail grapplers are more made for mud

Being a 2wd I would probably go with the mud, but all depends on how much and how deep the mud is you plan on getting in. I do know from previous experience that 2wd trucks have to hammer it alot harder than the 4wd trucks off road so might help to have a more aggressive tire.

I you are going in the mud get the most aggressive tire you can get and hit the mud with alot of momentum especially if you have an open diff (and get ready to fix broken parts every now and then)

I'd go with the trail grapplers, especially with it being 2wd. I love my trail grapplers, there not super loud and they last. Just keep em rotated. Haven't got stuck with em yet, although mine is 4x4 lol. My brother has terra grapplers on his truck and man what a difference between the 2. Both are great tires though
