    And yes indeeeediee...they last very well.

    Limited sizes may be the issue...
    ...they messed me up by stopping the 33x12:50x16...and if YOU want 16's then Nitto Mud Grapplers are not available in that size.
    However IIRC...they do have 33x12:50 x 17 or 18

    So instead I found a used set of Nitto 35x16's...and love 'em.

    I will be buying new Nitto 35's after Moab this year....
    ....they rock in the "looks" and "works" departments



    jo
    How used were they and how well did 35's fit? How much did you have to modify in the fenders and do you think any more will need to be modified when you get a new set on? The new set will be undoubtedly larger, right?

    Well Etfren (& Junster), if you can make it to the P.N.W. VX-Meet this Sat., 23 Apr in Tacoma you will see a set of the P275/65R18-116S (44 lbs/32" O.D.) Grabber AT2 tires on my "non-lifted" stock VX. The secret is to only mount them on the OEM 18x7 Stock Rims (it keeps them nicely tucked inside the front wheel-wells without rubbing).

    The dealer Ias talking bout is Gateway Tire. I'm hoping I have the tire model right. My VX is still at the body shop should have it back tomorrow. I'm about positive that my rims are 16".
    Junster If it don't looked fixed.. It ain't fixed.
