Get aggressive hybrid-terrain performance from the Nitto Ridge Grappler LT285/70R17 116Q C1 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 LT285/70R17 Ridge Grappler is a popular LT-metric fitment for select Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, Jeep Wrangler, Jeep Gladiator, Ford Bronco, Toyota 4Runner models, plus similar trucks and SUVs using 17-inch wheels.
Why choose the Nitto Ridge Grappler in LT285/70R17?
Built for lifted half-ton pickups, heavy-duty trucks, and overland builds: The 116Q C1 rating is a strong match for Jeeps, midsize trucks, and trail builds that need LT construction without moving to a heavier load range.
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.

Ridge Grappler Customer Reviews
Best all terrain tires I have have ever used.
Like the tread and look, and they perform well!
Like the tire's
Highly recommend these Nitto tires. They are by far my favorite tire I've purchased for my Ram 1500. Great on and off road. Long lasting for an aggressive on/offroad tire.
