I've had the G2's for 6 years now with about 70,000 miles. Best tire ever but Nitto stopped making them. So I was replacing them with Firestone Destination XT tomorrow, but not anymore. After this video I will shop around for this new G3. Great review and Nittos back story.

When did Nitto discontinue the G2? I just got the G2’s installed today and my local tire shop still has a lot of G2 in various sizes available. I guess the shop bought a lot of them before Nitto discontinued it.

I get about 4years and 60,000 out of my last 2 sets of G2's. I just found out about the G3's today. The G2's are no longer being made but yiu can still get them if they have your size, otherwise, you have to get a different tire. I'm going to try the G3's out and hope they're better than the G2's. I'm betting that they will.

@@rainman1387 I noticed that the hard metric sizes of the G3’s have a 70K mile warranty which is pretty much the best in the tire world I’ve seen. Does this mean the compound is more harder to promote longer life? Or is the ride quality actually better too? I am interested in these tires but I don’t want to get a super stiff riding tire.

@vr-tl9uh2 I cant give specifics on compound differences. A stiff ride is in part due to tread but also in the flex and profile of your sidewall as well.

They’re exactly what I want. Can’t wait til this size comes out in December! Thank you for reviewing them, nice to get some education on Nitto’s history!

I have the G2's, and after a couple years I can confirm that they do, indeed, suck in the rain. Although they never hydroplaned even in a crazy monsoon, my truck still spins tires at every stoplight/sign when it's wet out. I can't wait for new tires when the budget allows.

I also feel obligated to say there had bad ride quality, not the quickest, and almost dangerous when it was wet. But it made me feel like it was the 90s again and they lasted forever.

I had Michelin tires before these in 265/70r18. In comparison, the road noise with the Terra Grappler's is barely noticeable, and they are very smooth on the highway. I took a road trip to the mountains this weekend, highway had lots of curves and the tires were solid. Also went on some dirt, forest service roads that were pretty rough, and the tires performed great there as well.

But this time i was convinced to try terra grappler G3. Never had Nitto tires before. I am from the Houston, Tx area. About 80% pavement and the rest is off road on our farms. I have had them for about 6 weeks. So far very pleased. Quiet and comfortable for this type of tire. No rain for the last 2 months so i can't say how they will perform in wet weather.

Have been a BFG Fanboy for over 48 years. The last set of BFG AT's on my GMC Sierra 1500 Z71, wore down as fast as a pencil eraser. I swore I would not spend my money on another set of BFG AT's. After watching several influencer and praising NITTO quality and customer service, I started looking for a tire for my next build. I went with a set of NITTO RECONS on my 2020 F250 with a 2.5" Carli Suspension. So far I'm pleased with the overall, ride,noise and look of this tire. Time will tell. Don't be afraid of trying something new. I think NITTO is on the right track for sure. Great review as always.

Had 35" G2s on a 2015 Wrangler for over 6 years and 70k miles. They never had any issues, and still had tread left on them when they were removed. They weren't loud, never lost traction when wet. They eventually started to dry-rot. That Jeep has 37" Ridge Grapplers on it now. My '21 Wrangler has Radar Renegade R/Ts on it, but I was thinking about going to the Recon Grappler when it's time to replace. It spends most of it's time on the pavement, but I like to wheel it when I get the chance.

Hey man, how would you say the ride quality and noise compare with the others you listed? I know you said smooth and quiet, but like is it an astounding difference? I’m asking because I currently have the Nitto Recon grapplers which I would say are comparable to the ones you listed. They do great off road and look great, but holy hell they are noisy on the highway. I was shocked how loud they were brand new. I have about 6K miles on them and it’s getting to the point that I may take em off and get the G3’s. I’ve had aggressive tires before and it’s shocking to me how noisy these recons are. My old duratracs were noisy at about 20K miles in. I can’t imagine how loud the recons will be at that mileage.

Finally a competent all terrain tire that has a stiff sidewall that is still good on the road and won't slip and slide all over the place at the slightest bit of rain! I love my Toyo OC AT3's but after 30K on them, they're getting scary in the rain (F150 Screw) so I've been looking at something different. These might be the ticket.

Yeah, have liked Mr Mizutani's past ideas, and think he's now on to more good stuff in this G3. Am probably a year from our next tire change, and will certainly keep these in mind. Nathan - Thanks for another very helpful video. Cheers

I do have the Nitto G2 on my halfton Ford ... I do like the way they grip off road, and great on pavement and weather here in Arizona. The biggest challenge I have with Arizona heat and sun is I never get full mileage out of any tire I have had yet . I started with Nitto Mudders, Love them BUT not off road enough Thank you ! Great video

I just put the 295 70 18 Nitto G3's on my Ford F350 to replace 285 75 18 Nitto G2's that I've been running since 2018. The G2's were developing some tread separation at 40K, but they were six years old so out of warranty 😮. (It's a second vehicle so I don't drive it that much, and it's parked in the hot sun a lot.) The G3's ride is nice on dry and really solid on wet pavement, but they're new so take that with a grain of salt. I'll be in the snow in a week so we'll see how they do. I also looked at the Falken AT4W; glad for now that I went with the G3's. Price out the door was $1,890 from a local tire shop. A little more expensive than the chain stores 15 miles away but I like supporting local business and they have great customer service for rotation and and balancing.

I run the Ridge Grapplers on my F150 now. They are less than stellar on wet roads. Probably about a year away from replacing them but trying to decide what tires will be best. I run 90% paved road and mostly gravel otherwise with the rare mud and dirt thrown in. But when I am in the mud it is that red Appalachian dirt/clay that is slick as snot. I was looking at the KO3, At4W, Rubitrek and now the Terra Grappler g3

I've owned G2's and they were great in all situations, comfortable, quiet, good off road, good on road. I felt mine were decent in the wet. Only hated one thing, they hold and throw rocks something awful. And I run a lot of gravel roads. I would be willing to try the G3's looks like they have wider tread grooves.

I was super happy with my old G2s. I got them when I drove to the Arctic Ocean a couple winters ago. They were good enough for the Dempster Highway in -40°. I only upgraded to the Baja Boss A/Ts because I needed something more aggressive for the Rubicon Trail.

Thank you Tire Sensei for another informative video. I currently have 37 X 12.5 X 18 Trail Grapplers on my 2022 Power Wagon which I use to tow a 7,500 lb. travel trailer to the area I want to go off roading in so the majority of my truck's miles are on pavement, The tires are probably over half worn at 20,000 miles so I'm grappling with (see what I did there?) eventually replacing the Trail Grapplers with a tire that is a little more oriented to towing down the highway with off-road performance a secondary consideration. I mean, after all when you've got lockers front and rear and a winch you can afford to give up a little offroad performance to get a tire that more closely meets my needs. I'm not unhappy with my Trail Grapplers, I just wish they would last longer.

I live in Pennsylvania so I’m looking for a tire that can handle snow and wet weather. I had been looking at the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac RT, Toyo Open Country AT3 and the Falken Wildpeak AT4W. I do enjoy weekend trips to the trails to camp and “overland.” I wouldn’t say I go extreme off roading but I am looking for a strong off road tire that could take on some trails and won’t leave me stranded. I’d say my driving is probably 70% on road and 30% off road. I like the idea of the tire perhaps being a little lighter in weight. I’m interested in hearing your thoughts and assessment of the new Nitto’s performance.

I had terra grapplers on my 2002 tundra that I parted ways with back in 2019. I put trail grapplers on my 2018 Titan shortly after buying it in 2019. They are still on it today and they are absolutely horrible in snow and rain. It’s coming down to the new terra grapplers or the new KO 3’s and I’m leaning back towards the new paragraph after watching this.😅 And yes, style and looks matter!

Tire tech is probably the biggest advancement in car tech right now. Lots of great new tires, especially in the AT and RT category. The big names aren’t just resting on “tried and true” philosophy and giving us better and better just about every few years. Most brands are givibg us a new off road every year.
