Nitto Ridge Grappler? Or Toyo RT?

[Veet Skeet]

I am looking at possibly getting new tires, and I wanted your guys' opinion on the Nitto Ridge Grappler and Toyo RT. I am having trouble deciding which one to buy and would like to hear your experiences, likes and dislikes about each tire.

Any help is appreciated! Thank you!

I'd vote Nitto. Lighter, quieter, and from what I've seen a bit more durable.

Own the Nitto's and they have been awesome so far. They are wearing pretty good so far with over 13K on them. I am curious to see how many miles I can get out of them, I miss the old BFG AT's that would get 70-80K no problem.

I'm at 24K miles, missing a few chunks from Baja, but really minor chunks at that.

I'll probably throw on another set end of this year due to planned travel/mileage.

And probably cheaper.

Nitto Trail Grapplers are currently on and will be replace by Ridge Grapplers around the end of the year.

Currently loving my 295/70 RG's. Super quiet(even at 80mph), great ride, amazing in the snow, and so far so good on the trails! Best of all paid $1060 mounted and balanced!! lol

Discount tire direct having their annual $100 off $400 deal.

There are sets of nitto ridge grappler 285/70/17 going for $496 for sets of two.
These are the C rated 6 ply tires. They also have the E rated 10 ply tires at $512 (2).

If I do two separate transactions and apply the code the total ends up being $792 for the set.

Searching online i couldn't really find a better deal. Of course mount/balance is not included.

Thoughts?

Exchanged my Terra Grapplers for Ridge Grapplers yesterday at Discount Tire. So far like them a lot more. Actually quieter than the Terra’s.

What timing!

I just bought my 4th set of Toyo MT E rated at Les Schwab yesterday.

$1733 out the door in size LT 265/70R -17 MT (E)

Starting my 4th set, obviously I like them a lot.

Just fyi nitto and Toyo are the same company. So they're probably very similar.

Are you in Denver? Want to split another order for the spare?

Looks like you're running the OE wheels, any pictures of the 4Runner with them mounted?

Holy crap I'm jealous - that's a really, REALLY good price. I've got about 5 K on my RGs now and still really like them. Quieter than the BFG AT's and Toyot ATII's I've had, and they haven't let me down in mud, snow, dirt, and gravel. Have yet to really try them out in sand (even though I live in Southern AZ... somehow...). I paid $860 for all 4 and that was wholesale.

Toyo mt lt 265/70r-17 e

Not sure why it makes a difference what wheels they are on, but - - -

 

[ECUDrummer]

I've heard great things about both. I'm leaning closer to Ridge Graps since they're lighter and they come in a size I want (305/70). Buddy of mine runs the RTs on his FJ and swears by them, and I can't imagine they'd be any heavier a tire than my Toyo M/Ts.

I am in Denver. But I don’t need a spare. Thanks for the offer though. :thumb:

 

[4Running303]

I've run them both...Toyo RT's in 285/70-17 and Ridge Grapplers in 305/70-17 (e-rated).
Which tire would I buy again? The Nitto Ridge Grapplers.

Quieter, better grip, though i did run them in different sizes. They are both heavy, so don't care too much about their weight differences. Nitto's seem to be wearing a little better. My Toyo's seemed to wander more at highway speeds...and the Nittos are a lot better on hard packed snow than my Toyo's. The Toyo's were scary in winter and that was when they were fresh.
