πŸ’‘ Is the Nitto Terra Grappler G3 265/65R17 a Good Tire?

The Nitto Terra Grappler G3 265/65R17 is an all-season all-terrain tire designed for full-size SUVs and light trucks. It offers balanced on-road handling and moderate off-road capability on gravel and loose terrain thanks to its dual sidewall design and optimized tread pattern. Ride comfort is reasonable for an all-terrain tire with acceptable highway noise levels, though tread life is average compared to dedicated highway tires. Rated 3.5/5 by TirePath editors, it provides 3PMSF snow rating for light winter conditions but lacks the aggressive tread depth needed for serious off-road use. Currently priced from $243, it is available through major online tire retailers.
