I'm in the market for a new set of All-terrains. I need some advice on what to get for my 98 4Runner. I'm only looking for some 32s or maybe 33s. I dont want to spend a whole lot though. Thanks for your help

 

I have a set of Yokohama Geolander AT's and I like them for on-road performance. They used to be about $100 a tire for 32's but may have gone up in price.

 

Nitto Terra Grapplers. Cheap, GOOD offroad AND ON, and wear like steel.

 

I 2nd the Nittos. Just got over 1000 miles on mine and they do quite well whether it's wet or dry out.

 

Just a quick question: What is the smallest tire you can put on a 16x8 wheel and still be OK with wear, ride, etc ?? Thanks.

 

you could always just by my wheel/tire combo

FZJ80 wheels with 285 nitto ats. they are brand new

 

Bridgestone Revo's have been serving me well. Dunno the conversion for a 32 or 33.

Click on the "LT 265 75R 16's" in my signature to view the Toyo AT's I am running. I am very happy with them and they should be easy on your budget when compared to others.

 

Checkout the Firestone Destination A/T's. I've heard good things about them. I have the Destination LT's which are made from the same/similar compound that the Bridgestone REVO's are made from (Firestone & Bridgestone are one and the same). I had the REVO's and my Destination LT's are equal in wet and dry performance, nearly as good in snow and almost 1/2 the price.

i dont think you can beat 101/tire shipped

holy crap that's CHEAP!!!

NITTO TERRA GRAPPLER LT265/75/R16 D - (1) $101.93 EA - (4) for $407.72
FREE SHIPPING VIA UPS

 

$101 a tire is a great price but how much will you have spent once you figure in shipping,mounting and balancing? i figure you still should quite a bit over mine but I did get a few extras.

Mine cost me roughly $170/tire out the door at Discount but that does include the road hazard warranty certificates plus it's nice having somebody else rotate my tires every 4000 miles.

 

that's FREE SHIPPING included in the $101 price. KILLER DEAL.

mounting is usually $7.50 or so with new valve stems = $30
lifetime balancing is about $7.50-$10.00 = $30-$40.

$407.72 + $70 = $477.72 about $200 CHEAPER than you got w/ certificates...

like i said, that price is KILLER.

in 2003 i shopped them around and got those exact tires put on locally - best price going - ANYWHERE - for $540 out the door and i thought i had a killer deal then, and that was 2.5 years ago before Nitto had ANY name in offroad tires!

 

These are 32.1"

how well does the nitto terra grapler compare to the bfg for snow

 

i only had them in the snow for a day. They did well. They are awesome in the rain...better then the bfg ats.

I like these better than the revo b/c of price and the fact that they dont fling rocks

They are better than the BFG at b/c they are awesome in the rain.

 

So what is the total mileage run with Nitto TerraGrapplers? Has anyone wore them down to replacement? 35K miles ? or can 45K miles be expected?

 

i put like 26k (IIRC, maybe more) on mine before i swapped to a Dueler MT and they still had about 3/4 of their tread left.

 

damn !!! I think I just found a new tire

 

Wow, that price is ridiculous. has anyone ordered from these guys before?
