Nitto Ridge Grappler


Choose the Nitto Ridge Grappler 265/70R18 116S SL BSW, a hybrid terrain tire built for drivers who want aggressive off-road looks, capable dirt and gravel traction, and a quieter ride than many traditional mud-terrain tires. This 265/70R18 Ridge Grappler is a popular metric fitment for select Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Ford Bronco, Chevrolet Colorado, Toyota Tacoma, Toyota 4Runner models, plus similar trucks and SUVs using 18-inch wheels.

Why choose the Nitto Ridge Grappler in 265/70R18?

  • Built for SUVs, midsize trucks, and light-duty pickups that need more aggressive traction: The 116S SL rating works well for light-duty trucks and SUVs that want Ridge Grappler styling and traction with standard-load ride comfort.

  • Hybrid terrain performance: The Ridge Grappler blends all-terrain road manners with mud-terrain-inspired bite for drivers who split time between pavement, job sites, trails, gravel roads, and weekend adventure.

  • Quiet, comfortable road manners: Nitto's hybrid tread design is engineered to reduce pattern noise while still giving the tire an aggressive stance on trucks, Jeeps, and SUVs.

  • Confident off-road traction: Alternating shoulder grooves, staggered shoulder lugs, and deep sidewall lugs help the tire grab loose terrain and add durability-minded sidewall presence.

  • Rugged truck styling: The Ridge Grappler gives daily-driven pickups and lifted builds a bold look without giving up the on-road usability many drivers need during the week.
