/T/rail Grappler 275/65/18 bad idea for a daily driver?????

Im tire shopping for my 2k12 and and am finally in $$ position for Tire-Wheel-Lift and am shooting for this same setup. Badass! Wheels are Gear Alloy 18" and tires are 275. I have a Garage Floor Epoxy Business and im looking for a more agressive look!

 

Night Bump!

 

That is bad ass. I would do that to mine in a heartbeat. I drive 30,000 miles a year. Shouldn't drag the fuel gauge down to bad...

 

275's should be great for DD!
Nice truck and thats legit you run your own!

 

Thanks guys! Pretty pumped on the thought of this setup...

 

Bump... Your thoughts please?

 

I dd 285's as do quite a few members on here, no issues at all.

 

pretty sure i've heard these tires wear out REALLY fast - but somebody correct me if i'm wrong. tire size itself is fine, though you may have to do some trimming even with the lift.

 

love the trial grapplers had them on my 94 toy pickup but they were 35s. drove about 30 miles back and forth through town 6 days a week and they were very quite for mud terrains compared to all the other mts ive had and the wear was great didnt seem to have much wear at all! i will be buying these for my 12 when i get the $$ together.. good luck and they look awesome this was my 94

 

they did not wear fast for me except for one when my alignment was bad and i didnt realize it but fixed the alignment and everything was great over all i would recomend these tires!

 

My were fantastic for about 20-24 months, then wore very fast and got very loud

 

The guy at America's Tire said I'd regret it in the long run but this setup will be to sweet on my 2012 MGM Double Cab... They sure are expensive! Cheapest I've found them is on Onlinetires for 300 a piece, but then you don't get the warranty. I've also thought about these rims with Terra Grapplers instead in a 275 but can't picture them together.

 

Ive read they can be squirmy on the highway but thay may be with heavier vehicles.

 

I have 35x12.50x17 Nitto Trail Grapplers and wouldn't change them for the world. I've had them on for 2 years and this is my daily driver. I'm surprised at how much meat is left after this long. I do rotate every oil change though never going longer than 6 months so far.

 

have a set of 295/70/17's on the the wife's JK for about 2 years. Outlasted the Toyo Mt's. Going with them on my New 13. DCLB sport

 

Great feedback guys! Thanks a ton! Look like ill be spending the cheddar...

 

id also consider the new toyo AT2 tires...there between a AT & MT tread to me..and they have a 65k warranty on P-series and 55k on LT-series

 

More Opinions????

 

Morning Bump

 

Way better than mud grapplers. Buddy had them on all his trucks.

I had 35s on my sierra. They wore great. Good road manners. Really nice offroad.
Tested em in clay, mud, rocks, sand, and creeks.
IMO they're one of the top mud tires.
