Nitto Terra Grappler G3 285/70/17 SL

Thought I'd make a post regarding these Nitto Terra Grappler G3s in size 285/70R17 SL load range. I also have JBA UCAs and the Eibach ProTruck 2.0 coilovers.

First off, I can report that I have no rubbing, even when I flex the front suspension. It gets pretty close at the body mount, but clears nonetheless.

Secondly, my OEM tires were Ridge Grapplers in 265s, and while I like those tires, the G3s provide a noticeably more comfortable ride (I'm sure the SL load range plays a role), and they also produce less road noise. The Ridge Grapplers weren't loud, but definitely more noisy than the new Terra Grapplers. As an old off-road Jeep guy who ran E range 37s on the rocks, these G3s are silky smooth. I like the look too..

 

Looks good! Thanks for the report, these are on my short list when I get tires in a month or two.
