Nitto Terragrappler treadwear

Well, I thought I was getting a pretty sweet deal on some 33x12.50 BFG ATs but a couple days after ordering I get a call back explaining to me that the warehouse only has 3 left and has checked all over and can't find any more...which sucks for me.
Back to the drawing board. I have found a set of Nitto Terragraplers for about $550 to my door.
Question is, those of you running or that have run Nitto Terragrappler ATs, how many miles did you see out of them?
I've done some searching but everytime I find something about Nitto TGs its turns into a Nitto vs BFG thread, which I really dont want. Just want to know how many miles I can realistically look to see.
Thanks

I'm not sure there's too many TG users that have worn through their sets yet. I'm over 20k on mine and they are wearing fine but I drive a bit hard and they do show wear on the edges but considering that and more than a few trail runs they are holding up nicely. I'd expect mine to last about 45k before I'll be ready for another set.

I've had mine for 15K and they show very little treadwear. I fully expect 40K miles.

YMMV

Thanks Mac

Anybody run these and BFG ATs? If so which would you recommend for a vehicle seeing 90% street?

Nittos by far and I've run on a few sets og BFGs on light trucks. Wet/snowy control and hydroplane resistance is much better than the BFGs and they are considerably cheaper.

If it was for a weekend warrior that saw alot of off road BFGs probably have the edge due to a little better sidewall and a bit larger lugs but Nittos are a smarter choice for a DD IMO and I wouldn't hesistate to get another set.

Friend of mine has them on his Titan and he loves them. He's had them only about a month but they show no signs of wear yet.
