    I’ve been looking at a set of Nitto Recon Grapplers in 275/65/20 (SL load) for my 2019.
    Does anyone have experience with these tires?

    How do they perform on/off-road?

    Is there a better choice of tire or size?

    I do not want to go to an E load tire unless it’s light.

    I read a few posts that this size tire doesn’t rub much at all on stock platinum wheels. I have 2” of lift from Eibach pro 2R coilovers as well.

    I did and only saw a post or two about them. Those posts didn’t really answer any of my questions

    They haven't been out long so not too many people on here are aware of them yet. Are your current wheels 20"? An 18 would ride better and give you more sidewall. As far as E rated, 99% of E rated tires will not be light. My local shop sells alot of the Recons. They are very comparable to the Ridge Grapplers. I do not have any idea on price differences though as I have not looked them up. As far as Nitto tires, anything in their lineup is good. I have been running Ridge Grapplers for about 6 years or so. The Toyos (Toyo and Nitto are partner companies) are great tires as well. A top runner up to these is the Falken WildPeaks. Hope this helps a little.
