Honestly, not knocking Nitto, but they dont make a good tire for the conditions you guys were on. Most of these rigs are running aggressive MT's or trail graps, which dont stand a chance against the compact snow/ice that remains on these highways for 60% of the year. The EXO Grappler is the correct tire in their line, but it is not good compared to other choices like the Falken At3W or the good old duratrac. I've had every tire under the sun under our company trucks that run these roads year after year for 100's of thousands of KM. Without fail we always return back to running Goodyear Duratracs. We've got 80-100 trucks here at our mine site, and 75% of them are running the goodyear duratrac. Good in the summer, awesome in the winter, and durable as all hell for the abuse of mine roads.

@@cameronyoung6402 lots of people swear by them. We've never had good luck with them. They are great when new but age poorly as the compound deeper in the tread is extremely hard. I think that's why a lot of people love them because when new they are really good, but if you really put the miles on them when they get down to 50% tread life they become terrible.
@JustinCaseWages Жыл бұрын
Unfortunately Duratracs have notoriously weak 2ply sidewalls. So for rock crawling they are not a great choice. As durable winter tire they are good. The Kanati Trail Hog has a similar tread pattern and a 3ply sidewall.

Props to Kevin for driving, always willing! Awesome recovery! Grateful all are safe! In this situation or ANY when someone’s behind the wheel being winched or winching , if there’s ANY steel lines or chain, prop the hood up incase a line snaps. Had a horrific accident here where a snapped winch cable decapitated a father who was winching a stuck vehicle out. Prop the hood up lay it against the windshield as jeeps do , you can even snap it to the windshield. It’s such a simple safety thst no one ever does and too many have passed away from not. A jacket on the middle of the line doesn’t always protect either.

Hi! I was a winter driving instructor for Eielson AFB 86-90, here’s a serious 2 driving tip when driving. 1: hand position on the wheel left hand is at 9 o’clock and the right at 3 o’clock do not remove your hands from these places on the wheel if you do you’ll oversteer. 2: Emergency braking. Immediately Pop the transmission into neutral, this will disconnect the power from the engine to the drive wheels. As your going into neutral apply gradual brake. DO NOT apply to much brake you’ll either go into a skid losing control or the ABS will kick in now you don’t have control. I hope this helps, it’s a game changer bowing just these two tips. One more, you maybe overinflated in the tire department. I think my heart and nerves are returning to normal now. Clay 🤙
