Apparently they have confirmed there would also be a Trail Grapper in this size too, 38.

I would buy those! Actually, I just wish there was a little more void on the edges of the Ridge Grappler for better mud traction when aired down...

I'm waiting to see what load rating they are. I was waiting several weeks for them to give details on the Ridge Grappler before buying tires only to have to turn down the idea because they were C rating. Had they been D I would have gone with those. I'm not going to sit around for another several weeks/months to see what the Trail Grappler rating is. I went ahead with Toyos and will have to consider them on my next tire swap.

They are C rated.

Considering the 37 12.5 17 nitros weigh 84lbs those 38's are probably closer to 90lbs, way to heavy for my likes. I'd rather run a Milestar or MasterCraft.

Doubt it goes up that much. Toyo, sister co, makes 13.5 in 37 and 40 in a 17 and the weight only goes up 10lbs. And as you get further and further from the rim you add more and more weight per inch.

If going from 37 to 40 on a 13.5 added 10 I would expect adding maybe 2-2.5 to go to 38 in 12.5.

Weird that the 37's would be E rated, but 38's are C.

Nitto Ridge Grappler 37x12.50r17 are a D load range

ah, I was thinking about my 37x12.50r18 that are E rated.

 

[duvinclunk]

They are C rated.

Bummer.

ETA: my mistake, I missed that you were discussing the 38” x 18” version. Carry on!

I think they make them D and E but what’s the point of airing down if you have a 10 ply side wall that is a stiff with 15 lbs as it is with 85 lbs? Especially with a 5000 lb vehicle.

Is anyone running these? I can't find any 40s I like so this is the next option.

Im going to the Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 38x12.5x17 soon! I have x comp 37's now, but my current 37's are 13.5" wide and weigh 4 lbs MORE than the Nitto 38's weigh!
FYI, I do NOT have alot of offroad experience/offroad tire experience but no complaints with the x comps, I just like the taller, thinner look of the Nitto.
