need a little help...
can anyone tell me about the road noise on either the kumho kl71 or the nitto mud grapplers? how are they on lower speeds like 35-40 and higher speeds 65-70? how is the tread wear? im prob going 2 b on road more than off.
i really like the nittos agressivness but there are so many mixed reviews out there, so i figured id ask you guys n c what ur experiences were on either.

TheNittos seem like a good tire, I've seen people on here with them before and they were on of my top considerations

out of those two the nitto's are the better tire IMO

I had a blacked out H3 sporting those Grappler's pass me on the highway the other day
doing about 80. His tires completely drowned out the whine my Swampers made.....
I was impressed.
(Plus the spare and blacked out rim looked bad-ass--in the brief moment I saw it whizzing past)

Roger that Mark.... I've heard those on the road, they ain't quiet. I'm constantly amazed at the Super Swamper Trxus M/T. They look like they'd howl and growl but the are damn quiet on the road. AS LONG AS YOU ROTATE THEM REGULARLY AND KEEP THE TIRE PRESSURE RIGHT. Love mine.

I have the Kuhmo`s, They dont make much noise till about 50mph. As far as perfomance i cant help you, mine only see pavement, i just like the way the big mud tire looks on my 24`s

i have vids of a highly modified h1 alpha with grapplers and a lift and 650hp engine going through mud.... and a stock h1 2003 with just super swamper iroks..
the modified one couldnt make it through 4 times...
the stock one with different tires.. made it through first time no problem.. and just to piss the modified guy off... went through it again..BACKWARDS!

those kuhmos look cool,as do the nittos,maybe you just go with a super swamper,they are always a good choice
