I have it narrowed down to a Set of NITTO Terra Grapplers @ $121/ea, or Hankook DynaPro ATM RF10's for $127/ea.

So, opinions? Anyone running the Hankook? I really like white letter tires.

You might want to avoid the Nitto's? :dunno: (Thread below) Also do a google search on them, I just did for a set of winter tires I was going to purchase and all I can say is, I am glad I did!

Yeah, those are Mud Grapplers, and they were a much bigger size than I am going to run. They are talking about 20"+ rims; I am running a stock 17" rim and tire setup 265/70/17....

They get pretty good reviews. I am most likely going with the Hankooks anyhow.

 

Thanks for the info though!

 

No problem, didn't realize they were a much bigger, different designed tire :dunno:

Wow, nobody is running these tires? What the hell. :lol:

 

I have never used the hankooks on my truck but we have ran them on high hp front wheel drive cars..(i know totally different animal) BUT from what i read they have simiar characteristics.. Dry traction on the road might not be the absolute best, but its because they run a hard compound that wears like IRON.

 

I am looking into the hankook mud terrains they look real mean and reportedly get 50k+ miles out of a set. I dont think the terra grapplers will give u the mileage of the hankooks, mainly because they have a softer compound.

I don't have them yet, but I'm now seriously considering them. They are $23 per tire more expensive than the Nitto TG's here ($164 vs. $141) but they seem to have pretty good reviews. My experience with the Nitto's on my old truck were fair. I liked them for ride and handling but they did not last as long as I wanted (35,000 miles).

From the Tire guys I have talked to, the Hankooks should last longer than the Nitto's. I am getting a set of 4 of the Hankook DynaPro ATM's for $538 OTD mounted and balanced through Cooks Performance here in IL.

didnt last 35k? man thats terrible mileage out of a road tire. For example my Pro-Comp xtreme A/Ts have over 25k on them and are still at half tread. They are also a more aggressive off-road tire than TG's.

The Nittos lasted 35k. I was hoping for more.

I got 54K out of a set of Summit mud dawgs. They look just like the Maxxis Bighorn and they are alot more agressive tire. I could get 60 out of them if Id have had the front end aligned. Nittos are overrated IMO. Im getting ready to try a set of Buckshots on my Z71, getting them for 171 a tire M/B/I. Plus, how many trucks do you see with Nitto's? Almost all of them are covered in chrome.....i wont get them just cause everyone else has them but thats my opinion.

Not any good at just posting the pics

Id get them again but i can get the buckshot for 70 less a tire...i was lookin at the bighorn and the goodyear duratrac but the are between the 239 and 260 per tire range so im goin with the buckshot. Alot better than whats on it now, at least i wont be afraid to turn around in my yard.

I am just looking to get 40-45,000 out of the Hankooks. I dont really want a hard rubber, 90,000 mile tire. I want something that will last a couple winters, and grip in the snow and the rain. Should be getting these in a week or two, and will post pics!

    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.  
    • Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.
    • I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
    • That’s what I’m wondering is if the stock backspacing of the factory wheels will clear new upper control arms and such
