I pulled the trigger today and placed an order with Discount Tire for Nitto Terra Grappler 275/55/20 and trading in the factory Goodyear Fortera HL with 700+ miles on it. It should be here the end of next week. :D


UPDATE: Pictures added

I really like the Nitto's. Gives it a mean look and rides really well. Also looks like it has an addition inch or more on height. A little info on the Speedometer. I ran a GPS app before the new tires and after with really no difference. So adjustments isn't needed.

$482 for the Goodyear tires and they lower the price on the Nitto's. I ended up going to two discount tire places before I got the price I was looking for. However, after wheeling and dealing come to find out that Nitto is out of stock on the 275/55/20 and no ETA at this time. So I had to pay extra for delivery from someone else that they could get it from. oh well..

Man you can't beat that deal. This Friday and Saturday you get a $100 a Visa gift card with the purchase of 4 tires.

I considered looking for a 285 also. But the 275 comes awfully close to the upper ball joint bolt (i believe that's what it is) with the stock wheel offset. Less than a fingers width. I don't know if the 285 will clear it. I know the SRT comes with a 295 but the wheels must have a different offset or different set up.

No its raised all the way.

No trouble with clearance even when you lower the Jeep in the Park mode?
When they put the tires on we tested in Park mode with no problems with clearance. I'll try and take some pics today in Park mode and post them later.

Those look great! I'm assuming that the pictures are in one of the lifted suspension modes?
Yes, its lifted all the way. I'll post some more pictures in normal height and park mode today.

Do all Discount Tire locations take trade in of tires? I wouldn't mind replacing the Goodyears with those in stock size, though mine do have some wear, they're not in bad shape at all.
I visited two Discount Tire locations in my area before I got the price I wanted for the trade in tires.

Does the OP have the quadralift? I want these tires and need to know if they rub in any of the positions.

Although it does say there will be a difference online, every time I go passed a radar thing it reads what my car reads

Here's my first impressions of the nitto Terra grapplers. I bought them in stock size off a member on this board. I then scored a set of factory 20's off of Craigslist. Added some plasti dip and voila. The first thing I noticed was that the steering wheel was more responsive and the bumps were absorbed better. The vehicle just seemed to handle bumps better. Also the ride height was taller compared to my stock Forteras which had 20k on them. The tire noise is a little louder but nothing terrible. So far I'm very happy with them. I'll post an update after some miles this winter. Vehicle specs: V6, AWD, stock suspension no quadra lift. Land vehicle Tire Vehicle Car Automotive tire

I replaced my Fortera's with the new Nitto Grappler G2 265 50R20 and they are amazing! With their aggressive lug pattern & deep siping, they have a great bite in the snow, a quiet ride, excellent traction off-road, and now offer a 50/65,000 mile treadwear warranty! A great all around AT tire! :thumbsup:
