What is bad?
After about 10000 miles, they started getting louder and louder, to the point where I could barely hear myself think. Ive tried balancing them multiple times, but it hasn’t helped much. They also seem to develop flat spots if the truck sits for a few days and that takes a while to smooth out.

Offroad, they tackle mud, snow and rocky terrain without any issues. 

On the highway, they’re quieter than I expected which is a plus.
What is bad?
The only downside is that they tend to wander a bit on wet roads, but its not a dealbreaker.

Overall these tires are solid and have served me well.

These tires are practically unstoppable offroad and handle the highway like a dream.

They do pick up rocks like crazy, but hey, thats the price you pay for such great traction.
Comments
Ive been running these Grabber tires on 2016 Tundra CrewMax for over 40k miles and let me tell you—they are beasts! Whether I’m plowing through mud, cruising down rocky trails, or just hitting the highway, these tires have never let me down. They are surprisingly quiet for something so aggressive, which is a nice bonus. The only thing is, they love picking up rocks, so be ready to stop and clean them out once in a while. But honestly, thats a small price to pay for how well they perform off-road. I’d buy them again in a heartbeat!
