Default Nitto Terra Grapplers G2

Hey everyone, I decided to go with the Nitto Terra Grapplers G2. First let me say that I am already impressed with how it handles, how much more traction, and how much more sturdy my car feels with them on. I am extremely impressed, but its only the first day so time will tell.

I bought them at Discount Tire for around $968.

nice. $250 a pop is kinda high though. Are the G2's 50k mile rated?

Do you off-road your Lexy? If it's a street truck, at $250 a pop I would go with the LTX MS2's all day long.

Nice, those new Nittos look great, dig the updated sidewalls vs the originals

Nice tires, they look really good. Just need to add a spoiler now.

Awesome! I love seeing these Lexi off road! They can be seriously off-road capable with minimal modifications.

Burny, they are 65k

Coloboard1, I have to add a spoiler, especially after I backed into the garage door. Do you have any suggestions on where to get one cheaper?

I love the Nitto tires on my sedans. Have not run them on my GX yet. How quiet are they on the Road? They look a lot better that the Michelins in my opinion.

theyre pretty quiet for an all terrain, I had the earlier versions of the Terra Grapplers on my FJ and after a long speed filled 3 day offroad only trip I had one of the sidewalls bubble up, but these have the newer sidewalls so it should be fine.
