The Nitto Nomad Grappler 225/60R18 is an on-road all-terrain tire designed for CUV, SUV, and pickup truck drivers who prioritize versatile performance and comfort in everyday driving. Its tread design and compound focus on balanced traction across dry, wet, and light off-road conditions while maintaining refined on-road manners.
The tire features a symmetric tread pattern with interlocking tread blocks and tapered edges for enhanced grip, while variable pitch tread blocks reduce road noise for improved comfort. Two wide, staggered circumferential grooves work with lateral notches to evacuate water and resist hydroplaning, and triangular sipes provide additional wet and light snow traction. The all-season compound has earned three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) certification for severe snow service. Driver feedback points to strong wet and dry handling performance, with comfort levels that make it well-suited for daily driving.
Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds off-road traction while maintaining reasonable on-road manners. Overall, it's a solid choice for SUVs and trucks used primarily for daily driving with occasional light off-road adventures in varied weather conditions.
