The Terra Grappler G2 is Nitto's On-Road All-Terrain tire developed for drivers of pickup trucks, Jeeps, crossovers, and SUVs who are looking for a competent blend of off-road capabilities with on-road performance and comfort. Built for every adventure, the Terra Grappler G2 is designed to provide traction in light off-road terrain, dry and wet roads, as well as light snow conditions sufficient to earn the tire industry's severe snow service certification and three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol.

The bold, symmetric tread pattern is molded from the latest generation all-season compound utilized in the Grappler family of products designed to provide capable grip with enhanced durability and tread life. Variably-pitched blocks interact with the road surface at carefully timed intervals to help mitigate airborne noise for a quieter ride, while aggressive shoulder lugs provide grip in loose surfaces and protect the sidewall from abrasion. Coupling joints are molded into the outermost tread elements to help improve block rigidity for greater off-road grip, as well as on-road stability when cornering or under heavy loads. Generous lateral grooves provide ample water channeling for hydroplaning resistance, while full depth sipes help maintain slippery condition traction throughout the tire's life. Wide, zig-zag circumferential grooves further enhance water evacuation and generate the snow-to-snow grip that helps produce light snow traction worthy of the 3PMSF symbol.

Internal construction of the Terra Grappler G2 features a two-ply polyester casing for durability and ride comfort, with twin, high-strength steel belts offering a robust foundation. A single, nylon reinforcement ply is added to help maintain footprint composure and high-speed stability.

As with all Grappler tires, each Terra Grappler G2 tire features two unique sidewall designs. One side is a raised thunderbolt while the other features a blade design.

Note: While non-winter tires featuring the three-peak mountain snowflake (3PMSF) symbol may provide additional longitudinal snow traction beyond what all-season (M+S) tires not bearing the symbol can deliver, they do not match the capability of a true winter tire in all adverse weather conditions.

...In my first 4 hour highway trip in the Carolinas, the rain was coming down at 1 inch per hour. The Pirellis stayed firm on the road and had little to no shimmy when forging through standing water at 60 mph...

Wet traction, comfort, noise, and tread life were my top priorities and so far, these hit the mark. These tires have been great for the first 1,000 miles on my '11 Outback. In my first 4 hour highway trip in the Carolinas, the rain was coming down at 1 inch per hour. The Pirellis stayed firm on the road and had little to no shimmy when forging through standing water at 60 mph. The price/value was comparable to other tires in the same class. The comfort and noise are very good in driving around town, as well.
Purchase and install process was seamless. Had them drop shipped to a TR recommended shop and they arrived on time. I really liked the feature which provided an estimate on installation cost at the 5-6 shops within 10 miles of me. I called ahead to see if the prices were accurate and indeed, they were.

I have not had the tires that long, but they are dramatically better than the Michelins I replaced. The OEM Michelins (which had good tread) were a little scary on wet traction and these tires are great. I have not yet experienced real snow, but in one ice snow event recently, they performed well ... no slipping ... confident road contact. I am happy with my purchase ... no longer afraid for my wife to drive the car.

...Fabulous, predictable handling, braking, and ride on snowy, icy, wet, or dry roads...

These Pirelli A/S 3+ are an excellent, grand touring, A/S tire. Fabulous, predictable handling, braking, and ride on snowy, icy, wet, or dry roads. Also, they’re quiet and comfortable to boot. Highly recommended these to anyone looking for an excellent all-around, low profile tire.

...It's relatively easy to now take off ramps at speeds over the posted limits without a single squeal of the tires; they don't even seem fazed...

My first set of Pirelli tires. While not as sporty as a dedicated summer tire with grippy tread, these tires have allowed me to explore the responsiveness and cornering ability of my little Hyundai. It's relatively easy to now take off ramps at speeds over the posted limits without a single squeal of the tires; they don't even seem fazed. With a 70k mile treadlife, I don't intend to drive it spiritedly often, but knowing that I could if the urge strikes me is a benefit. Since I have a dedicated set of winter tires, these won't be seeing snow any time soon, so I anticipate a long life.

...And I won't highlight illegal speeds, but there are several corners nearby, and we'll, I was at least 20 over, and no sign of slippage, solid as a rock. And thats what I expected, and exactly what I got...

I have had Pirellis in the past, and after Michelins I wanted something a little sportier. I know, it's a Corolla, but you know what I mean. And I won't highlight illegal speeds, but there are several corners nearby, and we'll, I was at least 20 over, and no sign of slippage, just solid as a rock. And thats what I expected, and exactly what I got. I can wait to replace the snow tires and put them back on, but I broke my foot and can't drive, and so all I have are memories. Great tires, heartily recommend.

...Much more stable at higher speeds and as I drive I feel far more isolated from the road...

After Nokian WR G4 and Michelin X-ice Snow these are so comfortable! I use these exclusively in warm weather. Much more stable at higher speeds and as I drive I feel far more isolated from the road. Yet somehow these tires take exit ramps and turns without a problem. So far extremely impressed and would highly recommend if you want a comfortable and quiet ride.

...A year in they look like new. Really impressed with the tread wear.

Because my SUV is front wheel drive (i.e. Front tires do all the pulling, steering, and 90% of the braking) I wanted a tire that would hold up. A year in they look like new. Really impressed with the tread wear.

I have 1/4" tread left on the fronts and 5/16" left on the rears... I switched to Pirellis two sets ago because all of the other brands that I tried would wear out too fast considering the heavy weight (4400 lbs) of my vehicle.

I am still pleased with these tires after 5000 miles in a year. I have 1/4" tread left on the fronts and 5/16" left on the rears. The tires are quiet and have provided dry good traction. I haven't noticed and wet traction issues but I do not drive in rain very often.

...Also surprisingly lack of wear considering mileage and driving habits.

Super good bump absorption and great handling tire at the limits, provide good feedback about traction limits. If traction is lost it is easy to regain. Pirelli tires are great! Will likely buy again. Also surprisingly good lack of wear considering mileage and driving habits.
