Not mine but a buddy had Terra Grapplers on his 4wd 3/4-Ton chevy...that sucker would get stuck in wet grass. Pissed him off when he had to call me to pull him out of his yard, lol!

Thornbirds are just horrible everywhere, and Toyo MTs left me very disappointed in their offroad performance (bad enough I sold my brand new set after the first time I went wheeling with them).

Don't like any of nittos tires, their terra grapplers, dune grapplers, or mud grapplers, they seem like they're more for show than anything. I don't like anything pro comp or toyo, they're all just cheap in my opinion and poor quality.

Pro comp all terrains. Out of round and cupped out like hell after 20k miles. Rotated regularly and the alignment wasnt off.

Also, my BFG rugged terrains suck *** in mud. Then again they aren't a mud tire. Hell, they're barely an AT. Absolutely fantastic on road though

I don't get them either. Everyone around here runs them on their trucks that only see pavement and they think the tires are hot ****. They're expensive and the tread doesn't last at all. One of our mechanics at work drives a jacked up Ram 1500 with 37s. He will ONLY run Nittos and he replaces them like twice a year because they go bald so fast.
