Ridge grapplers in the rain

Anyone having problems with ridge grapplers handling in the rain? My tires spin all the time when it rains. Spun out going up a small hill at a light for what seemed forever just to get passed the intersection. 2007 4x4 sr5

 

Mine were horrible in the rain after about 20k miles.

 

Ive had ridge grapplers for 60k miles on my 4runner with zero issue. I will get them for the tundra as well.

They are great tires.

What psi are you running OP?

 

Yes mine spun in the rain as well. I sold them with 16k miles but I don't recall when exactly that started. But I switched to Toyo OPEN COUNTRY A/T III and I'm at about 6k miles and they spin too. I assume its a RWD truck thing

 

Mine do fine....just drove in the pouring rain all day today....got them on my 04 tacoma...no problem....both sets under 5000 miles however

 

We just have too much torque

 

Part of it is if it hasn't rained in a while, the roads will be a little slicker due to oils and fluids on the roads.

 

Got a set of terra grapplers when i first got it and never had that problem.

 

Thoughts on trail grapplers or recon grapplers?

 

Yes, mine ha e about 45,000 miles on them and are slick in the rain. No where near as bad as the bfg ko2s I had on my Tacoma, those were dangerous.

 

No issues with my RG’s…but those KO2s were horrible on wet roads.

 

Keep us posted on what you find Chris.

 

Dang. I was going to go with the Toyo at3 after my falken woldoeaks go, which have been flawless, just because of the tire weight difference. I guess I’ll have to rethink this one.

 

Just to be clear, i only spin when doing a u turn in the rain. Regular driving is fine. I still like the at3 very quiet compared to the grapplers

 

I got it......SLOW DOWN

 

My Terra Grapplers were terrible in the rain on my 2016 Limited. I was running 35 PSI in them because anything less and the felt very sloppy. My 2021 came with Michelin AT2's and so far they do great in the rain.....and yes I know they are not very aggressive AT tire but I drive in rain way more than mud.

 

Wildpeaks do it to me too. Only tire that hasn’t has been Michelin Defenders. No getting around it

 

Just goes to show us how we can't go by looks alone. People say I don't look all that stupid but....never mind.

 

They say the same about me!

Im sure some of it is skinny pedal too, I like how my exhaust sounds

 

I had falken wildpeaks on my 4Runner they were great in the rain. They will be my next tire.

 

I rail my RGs in the rain.
Never one issue.

 

I think driving in rain should be almost like driving on snow or ice, one just needs a little weight on the rear axle. I personally have not tested this theory yet.

 

Mine were way worse when pulling the boat. I could not pull away from a stop light or stop for one (even with trailer brakes). That's when I realized a good looking tire was not worth putting my truck, boat, and personal health/injuries of others at risk. I think the bigger question is how do you use your truck and buy the tires that fit the need.....they do look good though!
