Just replaced my 5 year old OEM 265/60/r18 Hankook Dynapro ATMs with the newish 265/65/r18 Nitto Terra Grappler G3s, and I'm already loving them. I was just curious if anyone had recommendations on what psi I should run them at? For reference I had my old tires at 32 psi.

Why are you loving them? How many miles have you put on them, and over what terrains? It wasn't until I used my Michelins in snow that I could comfortably say that I really, really like them. And they handle fantastic in all other types of weather so far.

32-34 psi, Nitto is a low cost Toyo that wear quicker from my experience. They tend to not keep balanced well. Good tires but not great. They look good and should serve you well.

I haven't owned them very long, so far it has just been very wet to dry pavement. I know at least part of the improved performance is that it is a new tire. but I haven't had any traction issues like I had with the Hankook's, even when they were new! Hoping on taking them out on some harsher terrain soon. I probably won't be able to try them out on snow this season, but if they perform any better in it, it's a win.

Thanks, I always liked the way Nittos looked. I know they generally don't have the best performance, but I heard pretty good things about these. I'll just have to see how good these hold up long term.

Do they 'sing'? I'm still running the Hankooks, and when I replace them I don't want tires that sing.
They are louder, but with the radio on they are not too noticeable.

I run 32 psi all around for normal driving with Michelin Defenders....it rides better....but I go back to 35 when towing my camper.
