Size will be 33" or 35" Looking for something with an aggressive look, but the best possible ride with the least amount of noise. I really like the look of Nitto Trail Grapplers and can get them shipped to me from $1500 bucks new via Ebay.

Anyone have experience with these or can you advise me on a different set as well as some online sites with good prices. TIA

Those are a good looking tire? Any other reason why you recommend them besides appearance?

I've got Trail Grapplers on my Taco and really like them. Id probably recommend Mickey Thompson ATZs over them unless you are in the mud a lot. They have better road manners and will last much longer than any Mud Terrain

I'm definitely on the highway more than the trails. Any websites with good prices?

I had the nittos on my f deuce. Ask geauxcats how they are riding. Discount tire direct is a good site.

Firestone Destination MT. Good looking tire, holds up well even on diesels, one of the quietest mud grips I've had

Recently some 35" toyo open country at2 on my truck and I absolutely love them. My brother in law just got nitto trail grapplers and they are really sweet too. Not too aggressive for city driving but plenty of tread for muddy situations.

Mickey Thompson atz. Most aggressive looking. They're relatively quiet and last

Toyo Open Country AT 2 is a great tire. They have some of the popular sizes in an xtreme tread pattern. Which has deeper tread. Treaddepot.com has good prices on these tires
