    new tires

    i got a set of nitto terra grapplers put on today and i love the way they look and feel on the road. for a all terrain tire it's extremely quiet. i was wondering if any of ya'll have had any trouble when offroading with them while using the stock suspension. i trimmed the cladding so it doesn't rub on the road but it worries me if i take it on the trails. any advice or expierence is appriciated.

    Nope.

    I went to two Zu's with my Terra's when I had my Dragon - and didn't have any issues with stock suspension... As long as your trim job was good enough, I don't think you'll have any problems...

    Bill,
    I think I'm going to get some Terra Grapplers in the next month or so. Aren't there some different Terra Grapplers out there for 285/60/18s? What was the letters and numbers on yours.
    Thanks.
    Peace.

    protonvxmatt: what's the exact (size) number scheme on your new Terra's?

    Vfrider1 now owns the Dragon, so unfortunately I can't just run out to check. Maybe he'll post...?

    The newest Grapplers i have are the Dunes. They're 285.60.R18

    Hmmm! I'm thinking my next tire setup will possibly involve some 35 inch Maxxis Creapy Crawlers or Trepadors!
