Tire Time...I'm stoked

[JoFotoz]

I'm thinking Nitto.

YUP...I agree!!!

I have the Nitto Mud Grapplers...they are pretty quiet for an aggressive tread
and work well in all conditions.
They look gnarly tooooooo!

I dunno. Those tires just look tacky. Way to much crap molded into that rubber. I like a more classic look, but that's just me.

I think I will be going with the new BFG M/Ts, that is, if I decide on a little lift.

Chopper, I can highly recommend the Nitto Terra Grapplers. I've had them on my Tacoma pickup for 3 years, and I put a set on my VX as soon as I bought it. They have good grip, and not much noise at all. The sidewall "art" is a little more subtle than on the Mud Grapplers............

Great tire. Very minimal highway rumble and great on dry pavement, wet pavement, and in snow. Good all season tire for daily drivers who have weekend plans.

First of all, those are spikes, not horns, and imo, there is nothing tacky about it. The scales, teeth and general excessiveness is what I don't like about the Nittos. Its like the flames on the dune grapplers. Its just tacky, imo. What's next? Skulls and Iron Crosses? I meant no offense, like I said, its just my opinion. I like my stuff more plain and not all "AutoZoned out". And those spikes were home made, brother.

I kinda liked the spiked look.....MAD MAX would be proud..
I think the tires are cool looking ..I just cant afford them..plus my new VX came with geolanders and a set of the stock wheels /tires..but maybe in the future the BFG M/T..

[Griffin]

I run 285/60 18s at stock height with no triming and no lift. I guess just lucky? I was thinking of getting new wheels and trying the bfg A/Ts with a little smaller tire, kinda like what daver has.....

Not trying to jock..... lol

[Chopper]

You're not the only one...several others have gone 285 and gotten away with it...but it's really a bit too wide for our stock wheels. They look like baloons with the wheels "sucked" in. A rim, an inch wider looks much better.

Skulls and crosses on tires..? Never. http://www.vehicross.info/forums/sho...eferrerid=1999

I think sidewall treatments are fun(ny) - they only work on certain rides though. The MG's work on Ldub's VX cuz they blend in with the rest of what he has going on. Scary, I know! I think they look good on Joe's ride too. But basket horns, spikes, teets... Basket spikes just BEG for aggressive treads to balance things out! While I think your VX wears spikes well, I seriously think the whole ride would look so much better sitting on 33" knobbys!! It would be like aggressive-stealth... or something. Now when you get the MG's, paint your 2 longer spikes fleshtone and give them some nipples! Just razzing you, man, you know I like your VX mods.

LOL, I was waiting for you to post that link Zeus. Can't wait to "unleash the beast" in May.

And I can't wait to see what kind of trouble you will be able to get yourself into then!

Don't worry, man. I do have plans. Like I said, once I wear the tread down on my BFG A/Ts, I will probably lift and equip some meaty BFG M/Ts. The spikes may go eventually once I get my light rack fixed right. Only time will tell, and money is gonna be tight for me this year.

And I agree about Ldubs ride, he wears his mods well.
