I have Toyos and I love them, a buddy of mine has nittos and loves them but they are wearing pretty fast. I would still but toyo for the mud terrain look or toyos for the all terrain look cause I dont care about mileage since Ive only ever wore out one set of tires.

The nitto terra's are an awesome tire for traction. BUT they do wear pretty fast

I have 20" nitto s and 17" nitto s. As long as you buy load E and rotate them you will have no problem. Toyo s are nice too, but expencive as hell. My Terra Grapplers do good all season, balance with out much weight, and are quiet.

i got Nitto's on my dually, and i put them on in the fall, and the fronts are wearing really well, but the backs are not fairing the greatest :-( but ive been doing a lot of drifting and crap with them, but mine are load range D and they are 295/70/17 they get really good traction in the winter snow or ice, great traction on pavement as well!! my buddy with a powerstroke has the toyo's and hes got 60,000 on his, but his are load range E's if i do it over again im going to get Cooper Discover S/T's!! very nice tires last a long time and have great traction.... and they look bad ars!

My Nittos were bald after 20K miles.

Gunny Fitz · 04-19-2009, 11:02 PM

Very good question my friend.
Have an 05' 2500 with only a leveling kit up front which can fit 35's all around.
First set was the Toyos and after 40 k on them went to the AT Terra Grapplers. Hands down the Toyo's were the better tire for me. As others have said the Nittos wear faster.
They have a bit more road noise and to me suck on wet roads. I will soon be going back to Toyo regardless of price.

My Nitto's wore out too fast for me...

I ended up going with the Toyo's Open Country A/T's 305/60/R20 load Rated E.

I get them this week when my rims come in.

on side note....washed my truck yesterday......and of course it's raining today, waste of 3.5 hours #^@%$!!!!!!
