Ridge Grappler Tire

The Nitto Ridge Grappler is a hybrid terrain tire that aims to provide the best of both worlds, merging the on-road comfort and treadwear of an all-terrain tire with the aggressive off-road traction of a mud-terrain tire. Its revolutionary dynamic hybrid tread pattern ensures a quiet and comfortable highway ride while deep, aggressive sidewall lugs and tread design offer capable off-road performance. This balance makes it suitable for year-round, all-terrain use. Staggered shoulder lugs and step block edges provide additional biting edges for enhanced off-road grip. Stone ejectors are integrated into the tread design to help prevent stone drilling and protect the tire's service life. The Ridge Grappler boasts a UTQG rating of 500 for treadwear (metric sizes only), 'A' for traction, and 'B' for temperature. Its specific size is 33" x 255/80R17, with a Load Index of 121 (3197 lbs per tire) and a Load Rating of E. The tread depth is 16/32", and it has a speed rating of Q, allowing speeds up to 99 mph. This tire is designed for non-directional mounting and fits on wheels with a minimum width of 6.5" and a maximum width of 8.5". Installation is straightforward, as it is designed as a direct replacement for wheels requiring the 33xLT255/80R17 size. Professional mounting and balancing are recommended to ensure optimal safety, proper alignment, and extended tread life. The tire also features a dual sidewall design, offering two distinct aggressive block designs for customization.
