 Subject: 285/60/18 Nitto Terra Grappler

Message:
Is there anyone on here that has the Terra Grappler 285/60/18 tires on there Dakota 4x4 at stock height. They measure almost the same size as a 32/11.5 and I know that is a popular size and will fit on stock suspension. If you do have these tires which rims do you have them on and what are the rims specs. And if anyone has any pics of these can you please post them. I wanted to get this tire for the QC i have on order with the Moda R7's but just found out they are discontinued, but I think they would look great with the 18" Enkei RT6 wheels too. I just like to see or hear about stuff before i make a big purchase. Thanks for the help

I think that would be a great set I like the Enkei RT6 wheels also just not enough to make the big purchase. I am sure you noticed that there are not many 18" wheel options for the Dakota. There seems to be a few of the Billit wheels around by they are way to flashy for my taste. I like the Mllie Miglia wheel that tire rack has. It is pretty cheap too. I may go with 17" RT wheels and some 305/60/17's.

SXT4ME,
Yes that is why I like the Enkei RT6's too, they would look good in the 18" and not to blingin like some of the chrome or billet ones. And this setup should go great with the 4x4 at stock height which helps my wallet. Hopefully someone will reply hear that has this set up or knows someone and has some pics. thanks

I`ve got the 325/60-18s, wrapped around a set of MKW 18X8.5 wheels , on my 02 QC with a body lift.
I love the tire , it`s awesome on the street and very good for an all-terrain , in the dirt. My local tire guy ordered a set of each size and let me decide which set I wanted. After I saw the 33s I had to have them!

I was just talking to my tire guy about some
285\60\18's they would be a little less than one inch larger than my stock 260\70\16's
He is confinced that they will fit provided that the offset is not to far off from stock. if they are too much of a negative offset then they will rub when the tires turn.
AR will build custom offsets and custom bolt patterns for most of their wheels (Les Shwab says)
so that might be the route I go.
Sorry that I don't have any actual data but hopefully someone will set our minds at ease soon.
