I test fitted the nitto's at 285/60 and it seemed like the tire only hit after turning sharply. I'm wondering if a 275/65, which is a little narrower, will slide by the cladding even though it is slightly taller. And for those of you who said you didnt have to trim the 285/60's fpr the terra grapplers...youre magicians because there is no way those bad boys will fit on mine without cutting. I wasnt looking for a tire as aggressive so im just going with some cheap bfgoodrich rugged trail tires.
Where did you find the NITTOS?
I have been looking for them
THANKS STEVE

Possible if you got some wheels with a higher offset you wouldn't have to trim?
I had to trim for 265-60-18's .... Mastercraft Courser HTR Plus .... manufactured by Cooper .......
.
Maybe they were 'big' 265-60's ........ ???
.
or maybe my VX sits a tad lower in the front than some others ....
.
I switched to 255-55's ......

Check out the recent pics ISCE loaded to the gallery ......
.
I believe the ISCE VX has Nitto Terra Grapplers ........
.
they look great ....... check with ISCE about the size, etc. .....
I got the Nitto Terra Grappler 285/60/18's on... mostly because I saw others here with them on and loved the look. I DID have to trim a slight amount from the front cladding, but it cuts off real easy and completely un-noticable. If you didn't know it was there before you won't miss it.
I just went to a local tire dealer and they ordered them special for me. I paid a bit more than what I wanted, but they are less than 2 mi from home with free rotation and warranty...
You can see some pics from this past weekend with them on in my gallery as well. They look much better in person.
