If they have a sidewall as tough as their other tires, they will be much better than Duratracs. The sidewall weakness of the duratracs was my only complaint.

Exo Grappler pricing is linked in the OP. At quick glace, the two are pretty comparable in price.

Just confirmed Mel did run the Nitto Exo Grappler AWT on his race rig at the last Ultra 4 race. They preformed great and he had no flats.
Here is a photo of Mel's Jeep at the race with the tires on it:
What size tire was Mel running here?:thinking:

I wish we did but we don't have any specs for that size in our system just yet.

I just checked our system. Not additional sizes yet. Should be any day.
I have put over 1,100 miles on the with my Dodge 3500. They ride super smooth with only a slight hum at highway speeds. I had them off road on a trail but not 4 wheeling like I would in a Jeep. So far they have been great.
The trail was a bit muddy.

Got my new tires out on an easy trail this weekend. I aired down to 15 PSI. nice sidewall flex. Great traction! These tires are very quiet on the road! My girlfriend and I were able to carry on a conversation on the way to the trail without yelling. I'm looking forward to checking out snow traction this winter.

Thank you for sharing your initial thoughts with us, cod29er :thumb:
Went out Saturday on a 60 mile run. Get close to the end of the day and hadn't done a poser shot, so drove up in an old tree stump. The ground was soft and filled the tread of the tires. When I backed down off of the stump the dirt that had been in the tread fell out.

Looks like we finally have a contenter to compare with the Duratracs. I would be curious to know how these sidewalls compare to the E rated Duratracs (thicker sidewalls than the C or D rated)....looks wise I love em. Im also amazed that no one mentioned the fact that these tires have side lugs with two "reversible" designs on them...one side mimics the trail grappler while the other mimics the mud grappler. Looks like a badass tire, and I will certainly give these a serious look when it comes time to replace my beloved Duratracs. The only thing Im not too thrilled about is they don't offer them in 15 and 16" sizes. IMHO, that's where the meat of the duratrac market is.
