I am looking for a 35 inch mud tire. I don't know what I want. I am thinking about a 35 nitto mud grappler. I just don't know much about it. How many miles will I get out of it?

the mud grapplers look real cool and work really good offroad, i personlally don't have them on my truck but a frend had 35 inc mud grapplers on 18 ic rims on his 2500hd duramax chevy, they worked great in the sand dunes of glamis when aired down some, they were pretty wide so always seemed to have a sure grip on the sand, on the street though they are LOUD, not as loud as say a bogger but they definitley hum but ive got a loud stereo and loud exhaust so that would probabley drown out the tire hum in my case but as for miles on the street they won't give you much more than 30,000 they are too aggressive to be long lasting on the steet.  hope this helps

well what tread do you have in mind? you can't go wrong with a bfgoodrich all terrain unless you do alot of mud then the mud terrain km2 looks pretty cool, i like the toyo open country mud terrain's but they are so damn expensive, there are so many chocies give me some more preferences to help narrow down choice

It is between the bfgoodrich mts or super swamper radials. I am thinking more towards the swampers. but the are expensive also. I know a few people with them and they love them. They also have said I would get alot of miles out of them. the toyo open country aren't bad but like you said they are expensive.

I have actually decided to get 35-14.50-17 Irok radials.

Nice Choice    the iroks are badass but maybe not super street friendly but still badass especially in a 14.50 width
