Reviews: Nitto 255/60R18 Tire, Terra Grappler - 201-180

I put a set of these on a 2016 Ford Explorer. These tires turn a piece of junk Ford Explorer into a decent riding/handling vehicle. Quite a bit more road noise than a Michelin but not bad. Traction in rain or slick conditions has been great. The off-road capability is terrible in the Explorer but the more aggressive tread of the Nitto is noticeable and an improvement. There is a hill in my back yard that the Explorer couldn't climb with the factory Michelins and now it goes right up. Overall the Nitto is a good value for the money. By the way the Explorer is a company vehicle, I would never buy one after my experience with this one and it really is a piece of junk with a weak 4WD system. However since these tires did improve the vehicle I'm sure you will be satisfied purchasing them for your vehicle.
