I actually decided on grabbers for my tundra after seeing your first few videos on them. After a year, still loving them. Other than a possible tweak to the size, I'll be sticking more grabbers on when these wear out (probably another 2+ years with how well they are wearing too!) 👍
I'm at 97,000km on my Grabbers now, which are mounted on 17" Black Rhino Grange on my 2021 4Runner TRD Off-Road, and still deciding whether to keep them on for one more winter or buy a new set
My favorite tire that I have used. 30k on mine plenty of tread Life left and has exceptional snow and winter grip. Looks good too. Every day ride and handling are top notch!
I dont offroad, but do drive a fair bit of gravel, and live outside Calgary, so obviously deal with the winter weather too. Mounted a set of these on my F150 3 years ago and they've been amazing. Great grip in winter like you say, and I don't drive a ton, but they've been wearing well also. I'd be hard pressed to choose anything else for a next set of tires.
I prefer the grabber At over the K02.... I have ran them on a Jeep and now I drive a Ford Ranger 2.3 for overlandjng and the Grabbers are fantastic. I rotate them regularly and I've gotten 45000 miles on them.
Those tires look great on the Taco! Having a tire that gets you around off-road but is still quiet on the highway is so nice. I think we had General Tires on the work trucks when I was up in Northern BC going up to the radio sites in the mountains.
Tell me about your portable air pump, please. I had the original AT2's on an old 1989 4WD F150 and they took me anywhere, esp in "granny gear". 4 low. About to get the AT3's for my '14 TRD. Thanks for the video! Seals the deal for me.
These are definitely great tires. I run standard load 265s on my 5th gen 4Runner with over 50k miles on them. They're wearing nice and evenly, and I still have plenty of tread left. They've been excellent in all trail conditions, including snow and ice.
I live in northern Utah and Im a bakery owner so I have to drive to work at 4 or 5 am and sometimes the plows haven’t passed by. After a year of driving my stock 22 TRD 4x4, hydroplaned off the highway going 50 while switching lanes. The slush that accumulated between lanes caused me to loose control. I think it’s time to get some new tires.
Everyone I've ever seen with these develop wear issues. My mechanic said he tells people who run them to rotate them twice as much. I personally prefer Toyo AT3's and Yokohama Geolander. Had the Toyo's on my Tacoma and the Geolanders on my Tundra. Geolanders are much smoother on road and stood up to harsh Maine winter. I have a 200' dirt driveway and only had it plowed once last year, she climbed right up in 2wd 90% of the time.
Excellent well-made video. I’m looking for some 285’s for my F150. This video/review really makes my mind set on getting these tires. I’ve seen your videos and know you beat on these tires and they never disappoint.
I've found it not to be bad on wet pavement, mostly highway driving and high speeds. Although with the truck loaded with all the camping gear, hard braking in the rain is a bit nerve wracking anyways. So I usually take it pretty easy, but I've never found it lost control or hydro-planing etc. (like I've heard with ko2s). I also run 30psi regularly if that matters.
Ok ok ok… so I was gonna get the Falken Wildpeak AT3W’s softer gripper non-LT compound in 255/70r17… but now that I see on TireRack that this same size with these will instead give me the wanted white lettering, along with tad deeper tread and warranty life = winner! Wrangler Duratracs were originally in a close battle with Falken, but RIP!
Have these same tires on my tacoma love them on my truck but we had them on a dually work truck and they didn’t last one season only got about 20000kms out of them and caused the truck to wander at highway speeds
I run general grabbers the tyre is super good for the pavement , dunes driving, off-roading But remember u could never get this tyres balanced I have spent lot of money for road force balancing and every 2000 miles regular balance still these tyre vibrates lot
2.5" Lift front and rear (Dobinson MRR) , and the BR6 wheels 16 x 8 -10 offset (little poke) and 285/75/16 (Grabber ATX). Does need slight cutting of plastics around mudflap and corner tab of inside wheel well closest to bumper.

I got 100k km's on mine and they're still decent.. solid tires. They've been through it all too. I live in northern alberta.
Damn that's pretty good for an all terrain. I had k02s and they were good but you needed to flex them off road to keep them plyable or they got stiff.

These are great tires. But 10ply for a Tacoma? Way overkill. I run them in Load Range C (6ply) for my 4Runner.
Ayyyy look who's back! When are we doing a Forester vs Tacoma video ;)

Awesome review! I agree, love my 315 General Grabber ATX’s. Best tire for the Taco

Welcome back bro. Great video.
Yooo thanks my bro!! Appreciate the comment
Great video Spencer!! Always with that good video quality come to southern Cali so we can make a video 😅😎left a like
Love that intro man! The suspension shot is INSANE!! 🤯 Glad to see you back buddy, looking forward for more content to come!
Here’s my comment for the RUclips algorithm lol awesome video dude! 🎉 keep ‘em comin!
I might have to try these out on my next tire purchase, so far happy with the KO2 good info 👍🏼
Good overview. Full disclosure? Are you sponsored by GT? I think it is important to your viewers/ subscribers to know. Thanks.
I don’t think so he mentioned a channel and they were sponsored by General
Thanks for the help!
Great video as always. Good to see you back.
I agree… best tire I’ve ever owned on my 2019 Tundra… 275/55/20, great tires.👍
How much lift do you have? Did you do a cmc or cmr?
Solid fitment both before and after your lift with the 265 and now the 285s!
Thanks for the advice and review
Well done

Rotating tires hides suspension problems. I don't rotate my tires. I fix what's broken. Never have uneven wear. From new to snuffed.
I've got 54k on my Grabbers, I've only rotated them once or twice and they're wearing nice and evenly on my '13 4runner.
Excellent well-made video. I’m looking for some 285’s for my F150. This video/review really makes my mind set on getting these tires. I’ve seen your videos and know you beat on these tires and they never disappoint.
Any rubbing?
What a truck! What a guy!
Great review sir
I’ll have to try them after I wear out my kO2s! Great video! 🔥🔥
I love the k02s but i found they didn't have enough sipping. I had them done at a tire ship and it made a huge difference in snow.
You'll have those KO2's worn down in no time. I switched from the KO2 to the ATX and haven't looked back!
Nice video and the tires looks great!
He’s back! How do you find a difference on your gas millage with these?
Worse, hahaha, just a little!! (Worse in winter though from the idling / cold) - also thanks for commenting bro !
How is the wet pavement handling? Ko2s are supposed to be the worst.... just wondering couse the tread pattern is very similar. Thanks!

How are they studded ? On icy roads?
Those rubber sound decent. Once I burn up my K02s I may give them a go.
I run general grabbers the tyre is super good for the pavement , dunes driving, off-roading
But remember u could never get this tyres balanced
I have spent lot of money for road force balancing and every 2000 miles regular balance still these tyre vibrates lot
What size lift && what size tires/wheels ?
2.5" Lift front and rear (Dobinson MRR) , and the BR6 wheels 16 x 8 -10 offset (little poke) and 285/75/16 (Grabber ATX). Does need slight cutting of plastics around mudflap and corner tab of inside wheel well closest to bumper.
Duratrac hands down
Yeah nothing beats a true winter tire.
I run Grabbers as my summer all season tire then switch to Duratracs from December to March.
