Nitto Recon Grappler A/T Reviews

My tires are date coded mid 2022, and are already dry rotting as of early 2025. At first, they were awesome, quiet, stout in all weather. But the rubber compound as been disappointing till now, April 2025. I have them on my 07 Tundra. Braking action is pretty good in snow and ice. Acceleration is terrible. Steering is good in snow and ice too. But they are dry rotting faster than I would expect. I don't off road often, and if I do it's not intense. But there's a chunk out of the back tires, and fronts are crumbling. It's disappointing. They were good at first in all conditions, but 3 years and about 30k miles in I can't wait to get rid of them.

Second set of these tire and found them to be quiet, great traction on dry and wet surfaces. Please remember if you want a great response from any tire, replace your shocks with quality.

This will be the 5th set of Nitto tires that I have run. I have had them on several trucks and a jeep, and they have always been fantastic.

Great tires, have a good look too. Like that they are US made.

I have had these tires for 6 months and they are great! Very minimal road noise, they have barely worn, and they are very comfortable. They have great wet and dry traction. I have not had the chance to test them in snow or ice though. Would highly recommend.

Wet roads are a little slick but other than that no complaints.

Haven't had these long but also have no complaints noise is minima aggressive looking tires very good in rough terrain on or off road!

After owning multiple sets of M/T and R/T tires, I noticed these when they first came out and figured I'd try them out. I can't believe I'm the first person to leave anything other than a 5 star review, but I have to be honest. They are amazing tires... balanced perfectly, look great, ride great and are extremely quiet for an all terrain tire. The ONLY downfall is traction. Compared to the other brands I've owned, I've had to drive extremely carefully with these when roads are wet. I was towing my 20' travel trailer across Florida and broke traction multiple times on the highway doing 50+ mph, while accelerating around others and entering on-ramps. Needless to say it's a tad sketchy, although it'll straighten out faster than while not towing anything. While I'm not towing anything and it's raining, I feel like I need to drive as if I'm trying not to spill a full glass of water sitting on my dash. It's really that bad. Sorry Nitto, I'd love to give you a 5-star on this one but the wet traction is atrocious and I'll most likely be switching next go-around.

I read tons of reviews and all I can say is people must have had terrible tires prior to their experience with these. Almost feels like I'm driving on a gravel road most of the time. It's not at all a comfortable ride. I dread long trips now. Road noise is okay - I play music so don't hear much of it. Traction is phenomenal.
