Has anyone made the shift to the new Recon Grapplers? How do they compare to the Ridge Grapplers for noise/comfort? Nitto's website claims the Recons are more quiet and comfortable than the Ridge Grapplers but I have not seen many reviews from real people to back this up.
 
It seems like the ridge grappler’s have proven themselves over time it will take getting some miles under the new tire to get such a good reputation.
 
I just put them on my 2022 2500. I only have a little over 3000 miles on them but so far I like them. Im on the second set of ridge grapplers on my 2017 2500 and not impressed by the way they wore, big chunks of the tread missing.

What size did you go with? Those look nice on the stock wheels.
 
Ya, didn’t think I’d be that lucky, figured you probably weren’t close….I’m in the Atlanta area.
 
I just put them on. Working on getting speedo programmed now.

Love them. No louder than the factory tire. Running 65 psi right now. Also they are f load also which also had me concerned about ride. Just hope they don't get louder once loaded with camper. Also got speedo perfectly adjust with circumference and Alfaobd. Nothing rubs or hits either. I got through simple tire online.
 
IMG_6273.jpegJust had 35x12.50r17 Recon Grapplers mounted on AEV Saltas and absolutely love the combo! I did a ton of researching before landing on these tires. As quiet as stock, tires are 67lbs versus 74lbs for the same size Ridge Grappler. Load index is 125 versus 121 on the Ridge. Very pleased

Very helpful. I just purchased from CJC off-road their method 315s 17 and will likely go with the Recon. Can I assume no trimming and stock suspension?
 
I’m currently running Ridge Grapplers, and they have been a balancing nightmare. Have had them balanced 7 times, and they will not balance out. Thinking of swapping out to the Recon Grapplers. Are you guys still happy with them?
 
I’m satisfied with mine. A little more of a hum than the firestone, although I'm
curious if the balance beads have anything to do with that. I have approximately 500 mi so far and really like them.
