    Nitto Tyres

    Hey guys,

    Hoping to know if anyone has a lead on anyone with stock of Nitto Tyres.

    265/65 R18 Ridge Grapplers to be exact.

    Tried the usual mobs and they are turning up dry.

    Cheers in advance.

    You win the lotto, Kon? $500 a tyre! I went right up to the purchase button with no indication of nil stock.
    Maybe paying with PayPal is the go, in case they they take your money before advising of no availability.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    Great tyre mate. Just under 32 inch. I have the same tyre in the same size. Best all round tyres I have used. Basically a quiet Duratrac with slightly better grip on road. Cheers

    ACE Mechanical,Tingalpa,usually have them.

    Although last time i was looking for some,a year ago,he talked me out of them.
    He said stock is very hot and cold,and wouldnt recommend them,because if one was destroyed it would be difficult to get another one.

    Yeah I would assume at that price they don't have any in stock... I was quoted $458 a tyre from Bob Jane's - no stock nation wide unfortunately

    So I have heard! I have the Terra Grapplers on the 20" rims and in a 285/75 16 on my Rangie and they are a great tyre.

    Hoping to move to the next grip level.

    The fella around the corner from me basically said the same thing, but as a Kumho dealer, he had plenty of those options..

    I have time and I'll grab 6.

    Cheers Ian, Il keep that in mind.

    Although I am sure the TNT would be faster and more reliable!
