About This Tire
The Nitto Ridge Grappler 265/70R17 is a rugged all-terrain tire designed for SUV, Jeep, and pickup truck drivers who prioritize off-road capability and on-road comfort in their adventures. Its tread design and compound focus on durable construction with reinforced blocks, water evacuation channels, and noise-reducing variable pitch patterns.
The Ridge Grappler features a symmetric tread pattern with robust reinforced tread blocks that have tapered edges for optimized surface contact. Lateral zig-zag Z grooves promote efficient water evacuation to shoulder notches, while sipes throughout the tread blocks enhance wet traction and hydroplaning resistance. Variable pitch tread blocks of different sizes work to reduce road noise, and the high void ratio with multiple biting edges provides confident traction in light snow conditions. Driver feedback points to strong wet weather performance and solid dry grip, with good comfort levels and respectable treadwear characteristics.
Compared to traditional all-terrain tires, it leans more toward off-road durability while remaining more livable on the road than a full mud-terrain setup. Overall, it's a solid choice for truck and SUV owners used primarily for mixed driving conditions where both highway comfort and trail capability matter.
