A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy?

Two thumbs up! I can confidently say from first hand experience you got the best looking best performing 285/60 tire for the VX by far! Looks sweet man you will love them they will last forever and make sure to rotate that spare in as often as you can TOD does no like small differences in tire hieght.
I checked out your photo gallery. I just love the pictures, as they show a lot of detail. Yes, it does look like a very tight fit on the front when turning and they still clear without any rubbing-- that's awesome! I really like the way they "fill up" the wheel wells. Were your previous tires (in the Winter photographs) also 285/60R18 or were they a tad smaller size???
**NICE**

ya the previous tires were 285/60-18 Goodyear Eagle GTII they had almost no thread so i decided to change them, i am really happy with the new terra grapplers so far, i seriously hear almost no noise compared to the other highway tires i dont know why.
Also the Terra Grappler's made my ride a little higher im guessing the tread makes a big difference, now the antena hits everywhere in my garage.
thanks for the compliments! Every time i see my Vx i just fall more in love with it!
Yep, on your stockers (wheels), you should be cut free with that size, or at least very minimal cutting. Once you change the wheel size, just keep in mind that, things like the offset, will surely change the gameplan.
Looks good.![]()

Pepino:
I noticed on the Nitto internet website that there are actually two(2) "versions" of the 285/60R18 Terra Grapplers. One is 285/60R18-XL (Extra Load) and the other is LT285/60R18. Which "version" did you get??? In addition, I noticed that the Nitto tire chart for the Terra Grapplers does not indicate actual weight of each tire. I wonder what each "version" of the Terra Grapplers difference in weight is??? I suspect that the 285/60R18-XL will be lighter in weight than the LT285/60R18??? Please advise.
Im pretty sure i got the LT285/60R18

this is the same add and company i bought them from just that when i bought them the buy it now price was 639 + shipping so i think i got a good deal on them.
i am not sure what the difference is, they seem almost the same in the Nitto tire chart
