Yes 💯

Well I have had em and never want em again. I have had two sets of Nitto Ridge Grapplers on two different trucks and they were absolutely garbage. If you do anything other than highway driving, they fail on rock lease roads within months. Chewed up and chunks taken out. For an "offroad" tire, they are not for me!

@@TGLASS24 all depends on how and where you drive often as well how fast etc you’re going through different rocky terrains or such

Yes sir thanks

Thanks Jeff

How were the X-AT

agreed thanks

Yes 🙌🏼

I agree with you. Got the Maxxis AT’s on my raptor and am very happy with them! Very similar to ridge grapplers but better in every way, IMO. I believe price is better on them as well. I call the Maxxis my sleeper tire cause no one seems to know about them.

Awesome I love Maxxis too

I couldn't get pass maxxis tread depth. Just looks half worn from the start.

@@AmericanOutdoors1 really? I never thought that. I’ve had them for a year and a half-maybe 2 years now and they’re holding up amazingly

@@Corbob71 it might be different depending on the size tire you buy and for mine they start at 15/32. I wish they started closer to 17/32. Maybe it's a moot difference but I ended up with Toyo rt trail which is amazing so far. Either way though, they both are good tire makers.

Yes 👍

Yes true

Is it worth the higher price? Which one wins on the road? Noise, comfort?

@@DirtRoad_Chronicles the RT TRAILS come with milage warranty however the RIDGE GRAPPLERS do not.

@@henryscreations yeah that’s rarely seen on a RT which is great but I was asking from your experience which one is quieter and comfortable on longer highway trips? Also which one takes more of a hit on your mpgs?

@@DirtRoad_Chronicles long story short. unless you're doing any crazy off roading, the RT TRAILS would be my go to any day of the week lol.

How’s the recon’s ride noise quality and handling in wet/rainy situations so far?

I also got 130k out of mine, 295 55 20 on a shevy 1500

@@zachhinson3401I had recons on my truck and also had ridge. Recons are a lot quieter in comparison and a lot smoother on the road. I would get recons again.

I’m thinking about getting the Baja boss at for my 4Runner. I like the ridge grapplers that are on my Cummins though. They’ve done me well towing my 40’ fifth wheel from state to state. Would you recommend them?

@@Bananahammock88 The Baja Boss are incredible tires. Far better than the Ridge Grappler. The Ridge Grapplers are the worst tire I've ever run on my Duramax. They are horrible when it rains and in any slick condition. Just an awful tire.

@@kernmw10 nice. Yeah it’s a toss up between the Baja Boss and the wildpeak at3w on which I’ll go with. Thank you

@@kernmw10 the worst tire I’ve run has been the ko2. I must have slid out turning left at stop lights over 10 times on those tires. I hated them. They would not grip in the rain let alone snow or ice.

Did you notice the weight difference when you switched to the Baja Boss AT’s?

Your welcome

💯

Awesome!

Thanks for your experience and info

Thanks!

They seem to have a softer ride or about the same?

@@chrisreynolds6152 hard to tell just felt smoother overall and not as noisy. I went from 33 to 35. Felt a lot more comfortable if that makes sense.

Yes absolutely

💯

Thanks you

I will review them

Yes sir!

So then different load ranges.

@@tristanwwsd mine are load D 8 ply 124 load rating. More than some 10 ply tires.

@@ericestep9880 Yes. The Nitto are 10 ply E's. That's the weight difference.

@@tristanwwsd I ended up getting 37x12.50 on 17’s cooper at3’s. They see only 69 lbs each.

It’s been great for our customers

I can attest to the Ridge Grapplers being absolute garbage on gravel and rock lease roads. I have had two sets on two different trucks with the same outcome. Chunks taken out and cuts all over the tire.

36-38

@RealDealNeal thank you sir! I wanted to run them at 36 but I wasn't sure if they would wear out unevenly/ faster...

Awesome thanks

Canyon go wrong with toyo mt🤷🏽‍♂️

Yes we love the RT trail! Very similar to the Ridge Grappler

@@RealDealNeal how’s the tread life on it? And what can I customer expect to get out of them?

Just a 2-2.5” level will work with a good bit of trimming 🙌🏼

Yes sir

@@RealDealNeal the local tire dealer informed me that the Ridge Grappler is only $1 per tire more than the Recon Grappler.

Iam wondering if they changed the compound cause Iam seeing some issues reported

Same here, cracking after two years and 22,000 mi. Have a spot almost a size of a quarter missing in the middle of tire. Never been off road. I do still have quite of thread left. But yes. After driving in the rain in these and hydroplane pretty bad three times. Luckily I just let off the gas and the 2500 straighten back out, thank you god. I’m not going back to RG

Same here 20k and they are cracking really bad in between the tread blocks. Don’t really feel safe driving on them. Changing out to the Toyo R/T Trail

I run bfg and have for years I go up and down the same hills in the winter of the plow accounts I’ve had for over 20 years.doesn’t matter what the tire was on my truck would slip and slide until I got aftermarket wheels with bfg 35x11.5 all terrain ko2 they are absolutely the best plow tires I’ve ever had but 50k miles as advertised is laughable maybe 20k of great traction then as far as I’m concerned once any tire has reached half of it’s tread life they go downhill. Once I hit half life or 20 or maybe 25k miles I get new ones and put used ones on market place and get 600 to 800 bucks to ease the pain of the new ones. And considering that I have 2 f250’s both with 9’6 high wing v plows and 1.5 yard sanders in the back.these tires are awesome I was gonna try the nitto ridge grapplers but not after reading more negative comments from the actual users but high praise from sellers. The only problems I’ve encountered with the bfg’s is balancing issues which is very frustrating. Idk looking at toyos,coopers and falkens now but see myself staying with bfg

You must have your Nitto RG on a Toyota Corolla. I have a 2500, and can’t get over 40,000 miles. But I do tow.

Wow!

I've never heard that, worked at tire shop years ago , buddy wore a set of Nitto out in 30k kms, they were mud grappler but definitely not impressed by this tire,toyo cost more ,but last longer, Toyo makes good tires

@@mikehd3904 I’m completely convinced that some tires are lemons and I’d imagine that all it takes is just a little bit off on their process to turn a good tire a not so good tire. I also firmly believe that frequent rotation and the way you drive has as much as anything to do with tire life as the quality of the tire. I ended up going with Toyo RT, have about 6000 miles on them and so far, I’m not seeing any noticeable wear on them. One positive note, the road noise is much much less then what I had become accustom to with the nitro tire. We’ll see about winter driving, hoping they preform better on ice and snow as their reviews say…

🙌🏼

I have a set, 25k on them. They were great, but I’m feeling with vibrations in the morning that go away once the tires are warm. I’ve gotten them balanced a few times so i’m gonna try the rt trail eventually.

How’s the ride noise quality and handling in wet/rainy situations on your Kendra klever rt’s?

@@zachhinson3401 I love them in the rain, they don’t step out on you unless you try and braking feels about as good as a jeep can do for being a refrigerator on wheels. Noise wise, they hum but it’s quieter than the wind noise so i wouldn’t say it’s anything crazy. That being said like i said, they’re great for the first bit of life but i’ve consistently had issues with balancing and overnight they seem to develop a flat spot that vibrates the jeep a little when cold. Once the tires warm up it’s fine

@@zachhinson3401 I don’t have them. But I’ve never heard a bad thing about them. They are just as good if not better than ridge grapplers and about $500 less for a set

Facts!

When did you buy your set?

True. Ridge Grappler looks super aggressive but performance is horrible. Bought me a set and sold them right quick! They aren't great tires. Definitely not #1..

The 37 inch RTs are about 10lbs lighter than the grapplers.

Wtf are you doing for a living?
