Okay guys.. I'm coming down the home stretch on figuring out what to do with my truck.  One question I have is about the Nitto Ridge Grapplers.  How is the ride, road noise and drive with these?

 

Any feedback would be appreciated about any sized Ridge Grappler and your experiences with them.

 

Thanks

Found my heavier Nitto Ridge Grappler tires do much better with high quality shocks versus stock oem shocks. In addition, airing them down a bit does help ride quality too.     Sent from my iPhone

I’d love if the car wash would use Griots products, that’s what I use on my Vette. Anyway I think for my use the TG’s are the way to go since 99.9% of my driving is highway.

What size are you looking at in F? I can only find E in a 22” with a 33”-35” tire.

Go to Nittitire.com, they have all the sizes and specs there. How are you going to for a 12.5 tire on there? Big spacers?

I don't want to do spacers.. so I doubt I can go that route unless I change wheels.. I'm used to my 20" wheels on my old truck.. not 22"s on the new one...

 

I should probably delete this topic.. I look like a guy that is clueless now..

I’m currently running the 305 45/22’s and there is so little space between the tire and upper control arm that it’s scary, there’s no way your getting a 12.5 tire on the stock wheel without a spacer.

are you going with a larger tire or staying with your Terra Grapplers?

I’m either going to leave my 305-45/22’s or change out my wheels to 20’s and have a ton of choices. If I can find a buyer for my current tires and wheels I may go the 20” wheel route even though I love the style of my current 22’s.

I hear you.. it's one of the better looking HC wheels they have had in a few years.  Of course when I go looking at tires I always look at the shiny new chrome wheels too... so no telling what I'll end up doing

      Oil Consumption

      By KARNUT · Posted

      No I didn’t watch a video of a person who analyzes oil for a living explain general oil usage. For clarity I did ask my brothers one who runs our equipment business. The other who runs our old ROW business about oil usage. Nothing has changed since I retired. Their personal vehicles or work vehicles use no oil. Not enough to see on the oil checking device. Then I pondered. I like to ponder. In this extended oil changing world with oil change countdowns or lights. If engines used say a qt every 2500 miles or up to even 4000 miles. With oil changes reaching as high as 15000 miles. Normal for most people is eight to ten. Vehicles should potentially be seizing up all over the place. Especially in hilly terrain. Just how many people actually check their oil? Maybe 10 percent. Those are the people that probably change their oil early. I like to research used car listings. I have five favorite dealers I check. They all list carfax with their listing. It’s rare to see vehicles with anything but extended oil changes. Transmission service, forget about it. I’ve seen Honda and Toyota certified vehicles up to 100K miles and ten years old. With nothing but normal maintenance. Isn’t nice we all have different experiences and believe our way is the best. You certainly get backup for whatever you believe. Life would be boring otherwise.

      RUMOR / INSIDER: 2027 Silverado Dealer Reveal NEXT WEEK

      By RobbertClaus · Posted

      Interesting rumor. Dealers near me have been tight-lipped so far, but if this reveal actually happens next week, I'm really hoping they finally give the HD a proper interior overhaul. The competition has been eating their lunch in the cabin department for a while now.

      Oil Consumption

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There are a few good takeaways in that video that pertain to this thread, certainly the possibility of the oil control rings having buildup, the fuel injectors and how clean or not that they are ending up affecting the pistons rings carbon buildup, and the fact that its normal up to a point for a given engine to use some oil, and that the oil quality that is being utilized is part of that ring clogging up issue as well.   I was talking with a neighbor yesterday who has a baby LZ0 duramax and he had bought it slightly used but it does consume some oil and he has switched over to 5W-30 Euro spec oil and in this case that never made a difference in consumption over the factory 0W-20 recommendation. He finds it uses a quart in about 3500 miles and as he goes a ways over that distance he adds oil to full and goes another 1000 miles or so and then changes oil and is typically at 40% or so left on the oil monitor at that point with his use case of quite a lot of highway miles and more limited in short run use. I don't know what other LZ0 engines are doing for oil consumption but that is what his is doing.

      I dont care what Lake says. Goodnight.

      Ok well I guess Lake disagrees with me on a few points. I call oil consumption pretty basic. Rudimentary. He calls it "really complicated." I think 1qt consumed in 3k miles is a lot. He says that's normal. In 22 minutes, he'll use his natural talent to explain oil consumption to anyone watching this video. He covers everything from obvious engine damage to how normally functioning healthy engines consume oil by design. Lake explicitly states how you drive will impact oil consumption.   Shut up and watch:
