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

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

I was looking at the 33x12.50 22.. it showed it only as F on discount tire and custom offset websites..

 

Where are you finding the E's?

You can get a 285/50 which is a 33.5/11.7 and it’s E rated

Thanks

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..

That’s only a 32 x 11.xx tire

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.

yes sir..

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

    • same here , i have a 2020 first gen and the cost to repair these engines far excedes replacement
    • But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate. 
    • I’m definitely interested to hear the end result here. 
    • My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.
    • Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
