These tires look as good as they perform. Wet traction is just ok but I went up in size on my tires so this may be part of it. Wear is exceptionally good. Cant go wrong with Nitto!

...They are great in wet, great in snow, and great in mud, which I've had in 500 miles...
These tires are excellent. After leveling the truck I upsized to these tires. They are quiet, have good traction in all conditions, and are comfortable. There were only a couple of choices as I did not want an E rated tire and these are an excellent option. I am very pleased driving in town, on the highway, and in light off road/dirt roads. They are great in wet, snow, and mud, which I’ve had in 500 miles. Vey happy!

So far so good... and are better than the Coopers I had in the rain and for hydroplaning.
So far so good . Haven’t had them long enough to really know about wear but they are a smooth quiet tire so far, and are better than the Coopers I had in the rain and for hydroplaning.

Customers praise the Nitto Recon Grappler A/T's snow and deep snow traction, with most scoring 9s and 10s. Ice traction receives positive scores between 7-8, though some note mixed results with lower ratings (3-6) in challenging conditions.

...It's done great in snow. The design is a plus for snow up to 7" that we've driven in so far. It sheds the snow even at idling speeds in sticky snow...
These tires were super quiet for first 2,000 miles. Then the loud almost rough wheel bearing noise started at speeds of 40-60 mph. The winter time is really bad with this noise but as the summer warm weather is coming it’s starting to get a little better. At highway speed of 75 mph in cold weather on some surfaces it’s got the growling sound but on slicker new black highway or rough is better. I think the block looking tread with an angled wide opening is the entire reason for the loud growl at lower speeds. The so called step on some of the lugs doesn’t help on noise but probably will help with distortion of the lugs. It’s been a good solid looking tire with good wear and no visible edge wear. I did have the front end aligned like normal the same day the tires were installed. The dry traction isn’t great and no doubt because of harder rubber for the 65,000 mile tread wear. It’s done great in snow. The design is a plus for snow up to 7” that we’ve driven in so far. It sheds the snow even at idling speeds in sticky snow. I have been in mud but not a lot of it. So far it didn’t need 4 wheel drive. If I get in deep mud or clay type mud that will change. Its solid in all cornering I’ve done. Rain is good as far as not pulling in long puddles on one side or other and 2” of rain on some hwys. I can’t comment a lot about ice. It was in auto 4x4 in patchy ice and not driving like most 4x4 drivers that wreck in ice due to that thing called lack of intelligence. It is an XL so that 5 ply tread and apparently heavier sidewalls even though they are 2 ply will need to pay attention to pot holes. It acts like a 10 ply a lot. Very stiff ride in town. I think it will last at least 55,000 miles and still have 4/32 inch. I don’t let my tires get down that far. Usually if one is at 5/32 it’s getting tires. My daughter and wife is worth a heck of a lot more than pinching pennies. I’m surprised they didn’t bring tread out farther like KO 2’s or add about 2/32” more depth.

...I have driven this tire in snow and have had no problem...
My brother in law bought Ridge Grapplers for his 2024 GMC 2500HD and he loves them. I didn't need that aggressive of a tire so I researched the Recon Grappler. This has everything I want in a tire. My 2020 2500HD spends about 70% of it's life towing a Grand Design 2800BH travel trailer. There is a bit more road noise than I expected but this is a fairly aggressive tire for road use. The contact patch is nice and wide. I have driven this tire in snow and have had no problem. These are much better than the factory Goodyear shoes.

The tires were great in snow from dusting to 10 inches deep...
The tires are great. The only real negative that I have had was with both tire rack and the manufacturer. It took me a week of calling around and hours of being on hold to find someone that could could tell me the unladen ( tires on vehicle without being under a load or towing), thr vehicle laden (load on just the vehicle) , and the towing tire pressures. MAX psi is on the sidewall but the rest was a nightmare to get.. Even the reduced psi for snow and sand use was a nightmare to get. Once I finally was put in touch with the right person, it took less than 2 minutes to get the recommended, minimum and maximum psi for e ery application.
Other than that, I have had no issues
The tires were great in snowfrom dusting to 10 inches deep. Excellent in sand, mud, on highway. They performed better than I thought they would in loose rocks on dirt mountain roads and went through3 areas of rock and muds slides going and coming like it was the highway.
Overall, very satisfied with these. The wear has been outstanding as well

Most customers give high scores of 9-10 for dry traction, praising confident grip and responsive handling. Some 7-8s note minor variability but still perform well in all-terrain conditions.

...And these tires have outperformed the Toyo in every category... they don't squall in corners on dry asphalt...
I ran nittos on all my trucks up until they discontinued the grappler G2 and decided to try Toyo At3s. Those toyos only achieved 30k miles before they were unsafe to drive with. With no wet traction and barely any dry traction. So I then switched to these Recon Grapplers. And these tires have out performed the Toyo in every category. I have 14k more miles on these than I did the toyos and have more tread left, have 3x the traction in the rain and they don't squall in corners on dry asphalt. I will say, the ice traction and snow performance left a little to be desired, but they're not technically a snow rated tire so with that being said, I'm satisfied overall. Probably going to switch and try the falken wildpeaks next since they have a winter rating for snow but I'd definitely purchase this particular tire again for sure.

Good tire for the price and treadwear. Definitely quieter than some other all-terrain and hybrid-terrain tires. Make sure to rotate them periodically because they do have a tendency to wear unevenly, especially on HD trucks. I got about 50,000 miles on my first set, and I will be ordering the same tires again. They do a pretty good job in most conditions. They are average on really wet roads and in slick mud but excel in normal on-road conditions and most off-road conditions. I would recommend these tires to someone who does a little bit of offroading, but who primarily wants a tire that looks aggressive, with minimal road noise, and decent on-road performance. There are better tires for offroad (mud terrain) and there are better on-road tires (highway/street tires), but these are a good in-between. Never had any issues with punctures, lugs falling off or wearing wrong, or trouble balancing. They work good for HD/LT trucks. They are fairly firm, so I recommend running them around 65 psi on HD trucks for ride comfort and airing them up when towing or carrying a heavy payload.
