Nitto is mostly found at 4x4 specialists in Dubai's Al Quoz, Sharjah's Industrial Area and Abu Dhabi's Mussafah, and popular sizes include 285/70 R17, 295/70 R18, 35x12.50 R17 and 275/55 R20. Because LT tyres run higher pressures, ask the fitter to set pressures for your vehicle's weight rather than copying the LT maximum on the sidewall; heavy Patrols on Ridge Grapplers usually run around 35–40 psi on the road and 15–18 psi on dunes. Larger sizes may rub on stock suspension, so confirm fitment before ordering.
