295/70 18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers mounted on 2009 Ford F-250 wheels

The Ridge Grappler represents the next generation of the Nitto Grappler family of products which provides the best of both worlds from our mud-terrain and all-terrain product offerings. Featuring a revolutionary dynamic hybrid tread pattern, the Ridge Grappler provides a quiet and comfortable ride while the deep, aggressive sidewall lugs and tread pattern provide capable off-road performance. FEATURES AND BENEFITS Variable Pitch Tread Pattern Advanced sound equipment was used to create a pattern that provides a quiet and smooth highway ride. Shoulder & Lateral Z Grooves Shoulder grooves are arranged in alternating widths and lengths to clear mud and maintain traction. Lateral Z grooves are set in a zig-zag pattern to provide biting edges for traction. Dual Sidewall Like all Grapplers, the Ridge Grappler features two bold sidewall designs. One side features a more traditional pattern while the other side features a new, aggressive block design. Reinforced Block Foundation Adds rigidity to tread blocks to reduce flex. Stone Ejectors Protects the bottom of groove from stone drilling. Staggered Shoulder Lugs Provides traction in off-road environments. Edges The alternating tapered edges and step block edges both provide additional biting edges for more traction. Performance Ratings
