Default 275/70/20 or 275/70/18 Duratrac??

is anyone out there running these tires with or without a level? Most members I see are running ko2's but I'm leaning toward the Duratrac's. If anyone has these tires on the 18" or 20" wheels please post your pics. Greatly appreciated.

Just in case you weren't aware or it was a typo, those are going to be two different circumference tires.

275/70/20 is a 35.2 inch tire.

275/70/18 is a 33.2 inch tire.

That is a big difference because the 18' won't even require a level and the 20' would possibly require a lift depending on offset.

I had a set on my old explorer and liked them other than the noise. they look good and do well in most of the situations I put them through (light off roading and winter weather). But they were loud, particularly at highway speeds.

Not a bad tire-just want to make sure the OP knows what he is getting into.

Been there myself, but didn't want to crap all over the OP's thread. Very capable tires in mud and I was amazed how well they did in snow, but after wearing them in I couldn't stand the noise. They were very quiet when they were new though.

Here they are on my old beast with Bilstein 5100's. 295/65/18
