All-Terrain Evolution: Nitto Tire's New Terra Grappler G3
When it comes to a staple in the world of all-terrain tires, the Nitto Terra Grappler has an extraordinary legacy. As a company that’s always looking to push performance boundaries, Nitto Tire has once again taken things to a new level with the completely redesigned Terra Grappler G3. This tire builds on years of proven durability and elevates it with the aid of modern technology.
Aside from a completely reimagined tread design, the Terra Grappler G3 received a newly formulated rubber compound. This increases not only the on- and off-road attributes of the tire but takes its winter-weather performance to a new level with a 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake rating. With less road noise, more biting edges, and the most durable sidewall ever found on a Terra Grappler, the G3 is ready for adventure. Are you?
Tread Design
Taking what they’ve learned from the first- and second-generation Terra Grappler, Nitto crafted a bold new tread design. While more aggressive in appearance, the tire retains the signature low road noise thanks to variable pitch tread blocks that have been computer analyzed for sound.
Full-Depth Sipes
Ensuring that you will get long-lasting wet-weather traction are full-depth sipes. Full-depth dimple siping not only helps with traction, but retains the appearance and tire performance throughout the life cycle of the tire.
Fresh Rubber and Rating
Some especially big news for those looking for increased winter-weather traction, the Terra Grappler G3 is 3-Peak Mountain Snowflake rated. Part of this badging is the result of a newly formulated rubber compound created to increase performance in dry, wet, and snowy conditions.
Style & Durability
The Terra Grappler G3 will continue the long-standing tradition of two sidewall options with large shoulder and tread blocks. No matter which side you choose, you’ll be ready for the trail as the G3 gets an even stronger sidewall design, boasting the most puncture resistance ever offered in the Terra Grappler.
Reinforcements Are Here
To increase traction and durability of the tire, the Terra Grappler G3 has a reinforced Block Foundation, adding tire rigidity where you need it the most. This five-block arrangement works with staggered and concave shoulder lugs to increase biting edges and stone ejection.
Sized For Performance
With initial size offerings for a wide range of trucks and SUVs, and more on the way, the Terra Grappler G3 is ready to move under your vehicle. For a full list of specs and sizing, be sure to visit Nittotire.com.
