How to Read My Sidewall

Nitto 217440 Recon Grappler Hybrid Terrain Tire Features:

• Variable Pitch Tread Pattern - Advanced sound equipment was used to create a pattern that provides a quiet and smooth highway ride.
• Shoulder and Lateral Z Grooves - Shoulder grooves are arranged in alternating widths and lengths to clear mud and maintain traction. Lateral Z grooves are set in a zig-zag pattern to provide biting edges for traction.
• Dual Sidewall - Like all Grapplers, the Ridge Grappler features two bold sidewall designs. One side features a more traditional pattern while the other side features a new, aggressive block design.
• Step Block Edges - The alternating tapered edges and step block edges both provide additional biting edges for more traction.
