Thanks for the pic.
It looks like a great tire..................but as far as dethrowning the Nitto Terra Grappler............. I don't think so.

The grabbers look good for an all around (read...mostly road/a little trail use) tire. Grabber tires usually get good reviews. Just not aggressive enough for my taste!

I don't know guys,but my mind keeps popping in new ideas about wheels & tires set.
Today i saw one of those BMW X5 with the upgrade wide wheels & tires.
After that moment my thoughts were.hmmmm. my VX would probably looks very peppy with a set of two 20x10'' wheels at rear & 20x8" at the front.
Did any of you guys had a set up done like that before ?
Will this set up cause any down fall on the VX performance.
I haven't choose any set of wheels and tires so far,however i got few on my list.
All input are welcome guys.![]()
Tires: Nitto Dune Grapplers 285/55 R20's
Rims: Mega 835 20" Alloy

^ such a flamer, lol![]()
I guess it's not a good idea though !
I'm playing with two wheel sizes the 20x9 or 18.8.5 all around,but i don't want go lifted if the 20x9 is the choosen size.
American racing have two nice models;The Jr cannon in silver & black & the assault also in silver & black which blend perfectly with my VX.
But yet still is somehow hard to me to believe that adding 20 x 10" at rear & 20 x 8,5 or 9 " at the front can deffinetly make the TOD freak because of the dragging,the sizes difference aren't so huge + the weight can't be more then 1 pound.
However i'll research for more info about this,make few calls here n' there for expertise opinion. Thank you guys !
The problem you also might have is getting even wear when you rotate the tires. Obviously rears will have to stay rears and fronts will have to stay fronts, so you may wear tires out slightly faster.
