Nitto does not offer their Terra Grappler in any 15" sizes at this time.

Discount Tire- I know you had a lot written up on 15" being the sweet spot- weight, cost, tire options, etc. How does going 16" stack up in your testing?
I'm on a Wrangler Sport S (17" Moabs standard), so with a Dana 30 up front, I am still hoping to benefit from smaller-rim weight savings when I go up to 35" tires. If 15" still seems the way to go, I'll probably wait for the Trackers in -19mm.

The 16x8.5 MB72 weighs 21lbs and the 315/75-16 KM2 weighs 65lbs. This gives you a combined weight of 86lbs. The 15x8 Tracker weighs 20lbs and the 35x12.50-15 KM2 weighs 62lbs which gives you a combined weight of 82lbs. The 15" combination is a little lighter but the big difference is in price. The 15" Tracker combination (5 wheels, 5 tires, lugs, rubber valves, and the JK member discount) comes to $1705.00. The 16" MB72 combination comes to $2335.00.
Yeah, I don't hate the Tracker, I just really loved the look of those 15" MB72 in silver! I think I'll be making an order pretty soon. Thanks for all the info.
