Nitto Ridge Grappler A/T Tire LT295/65R20 35″

Nitto Ridge Grappler A/T Tire — LT295/65R20 (35″)

The Nitto Ridge Grappler in LT295/65R20 (35″) is built for serious truck owners running 20-inch wheels who want a commanding stance combined with genuine off-road capability. This large Light Truck (LT) sizing delivers the Ridge Grappler’s proven hybrid tread technology in a bold, heavy-duty package — ideal for lifted trucks, tow rigs, and off-road-ready builds.

A Hybrid Tire Built for Two Worlds

The Ridge Grappler’s signature feature is its Dual Tread Design (DTD) — a stepped tread pattern that combines two tire personalities into one. The outer tread blocks are wide-set and aggressive, similar to a mud-terrain tire, delivering strong bite in mud, gravel, sand, and rocky terrain. The inner tread blocks are tighter and more refined, closer to an all-terrain pattern, helping to reduce road noise and improve ride comfort on pavement. This hybrid approach means you get true off-road capability without sacrificing everyday drivability — even in this larger, heavy-duty size.

LT-Rated for Heavy-Duty Performance

As a Light Truck (LT) rated tire, the LT295/65R20 is built with a stronger internal construction than standard passenger (P-metric) sizing, giving it a higher load-carrying capacity. This makes it well-suited for trucks that regularly tow trailers, haul heavy gear, or carry aftermarket accessories like bumpers, winches, and roof racks.

Reinforced for Off-Road Durability

This tire features a reinforced sidewall construction designed to resist punctures, cuts, and abrasion from rocks, roots, and rough trail debris. For drivers who frequently venture off pavement — whether overlanding, rock crawling, or running remote backroads — this added durability is critical for avoiding costly flats and sidewall damage on a tire this size.

Quiet Ride, Aggressive Look

Nitto engineered the Ridge Grappler with stone ejector technology built into the tread grooves, helping prevent small rocks and debris from becoming lodged in the tire. This reduces long-term noise, vibration, and uneven tread wear. Combined with the stepped tread design, this large-format tire manages to look aggressive and imposing while still delivering a smoother, quieter ride than a comparable mud-terrain tire.

• Off-road enthusiasts needing maximum ground clearance and traction
• Overlanders and outdoor adventurers requiring puncture-resistant durability
• Truck owners wanting a bold, aggressive stance without sacrificing on-road comfort

Why Choose the LT-Rated Sizing?

LT (Light Truck) rated tires are engineered with reinforced construction to handle higher loads and towing demands compared to standard passenger-rated tires. For truck owners who use their vehicle for work, towing, or carrying heavy off-road gear, the LT295/65R20 offers the added strength and durability needed for demanding use.

Installation & Fitment Notes

A 35″ tire typically requires a significant lift and possible fender/body modifications on most stock trucks. This size is best suited for vehicles that are already built out with appropriate suspension and clearance. Always confirm your specific vehicle’s wheel well clearance and backspacing before ordering, and have tires professionally mounted and balanced.

Upgrade your build with the proven performance of the Nitto Ridge Grappler A/T in LT295/65R20 (35″) — aggressive, durable, and ready for the trail.
