Ok, so its getting time for some new tires, and Ive been doing the homework, and I found a tire that I have heard good reviews from other truck companies, but I have never seen them on an ex/mounty, the tires Im talking about are Nittos, Please feel free to add your personal experiences with them, or add your own, at first I was going to go with the tried and true BFG AT, but one of my friends that runs a chevy silverado with BFG MT says that he was going to do Nitto AT before he ran into a good deal on the BFG, so anyway, my questions are: Has anyone ran or known anyone who ran a Nitto on an ex, what the results and feedback was, or any recomendations, grasias for all feedback :D

Well same company, but the All Terrain, the Terra Grapler instead of the mud terrain, but its good to know that at least someone runs the brand, actuall that may have been what I asked for LOL

EDIT: Yeah, I just asked for Nittos, ty, anyone know of any ATs?
 






Nittos are great pavement tires that have the appearance of an AT or MT tire.

Otherwise I'd say BFG AT or Bridgestone Dueler Revo if you really wanted an AT.
 






I guess I dont really need the full out AT, but theres a lot of suger sand, and it would be nice to be towing people out, not the other way around lol
 






A lot of people on the Frontier forum I frequent run the terra grapplers and love them. Most guys even prefer them over the BFG's and they seem to last just as long. I really want a set on my Frontier, but we will see when the time comes for new tires.

Yeah, Ive seen the Titan, frontier, f350, all sorts of trucks, but never on here, really would like some pics or some more info...
 












ok, so just looked at that, ty, was on vacation for 2 weeks, they dont have the size I want in the terra, but I might do dune, I would really like to step up to 33's eventually, so Im thinking that I will do the dunes untill I can afford a lift and then Ill go ahead and get the longer lasting BFG AT's :D
 






I had a set of 32 on my colorado and they were great tires.
