Question Goodyear Wrangler Dura-Tracs

Just wanted to pass along that these tires rock! I've had the on my truck for 2 weeks and have been great. Great highway manors and very capable off road. Had a huge snow storm in TN this week and they never let me down. Pulled 3 cars out of ditches and pushed a cop out of a slick spot. Always sure footed and didn't even need 4x4 80% of the time unless it was really bad. Whats everyone else thinking/ opinions on these tires? Any more reviews?

I"m running 305/55/20's on my 07 FX4 Screw.....They fit perfect without the leveling kit with no rubbing. Gateway tire wanted $485 a piece for them but Discount tire matched a price I found online for $340 each. I'm waiting on the Bilstein Leveling shocks to round out the package. They look great on the truck.

can you post pics? i have an 06 screw lariat with a daystar 2.5 kit and 3 inch block in the rear and was wanting to see what these look like on the stock 20's. Do they actually measure 33.4 inchs?

I'll post pics ASAP....I am getting the rims powder coated black but i think i have some pics of them prior. As far as wearing fast, ive heard mixed stories about them, but asked around down here and one of the guys at the tire store had them on his truck with 10,000 miles on them...Still looked new. I noticed most of the reviewers saying they wear fast were in Canada. So I called customer service and they told me the Canadian Goodyear tires were made of a different rubber mix....Also that the tires with the load rating of E wear slower. Crazy huh?

Redrado... They actually measure right at 33.6, just a little bigger than what they are advertised as.

Not too noisy on the highway..there is a light humm but nothing like the MT's. With the radio on you dont notice anything. Im foaming at the mouth to get them in the mud but had't had a chance yet. They were awesome in 7 inches of snow and ice though! Only truck on the road in my neighborhood this weekend...Got many compliments on them.
