Default Goodyear Duratrecs

Waiting to have my new Duratecs installed! Great looking tire IMO, hope they are as great as most people say they are...I know they look much better than the original tires!

Probably just a typo. But what size are you getting them in? Curious on how the play on the road really is that people describe.

The BFG KO2's are actually priced cheaper than the same size duratrac just to let you know. I was all about getting duratracs until I found this out. They are both a snow rated tire too.

I am getting them just slightly larger than stock, 275 70 18 instead of 65, about 1" larger, 33.2" I think. I read about the sidewalls flexing and it seems when people run then at 50psi it seems to be a good compromise between sidewall flex and ride.

I looked at those too but ended up going with the Goodyear's obviously. Did you buy the BFG or are you still in the market? Curious how you like them if you have them on.

I have Duratracs and had the BFG A/T's before. The duratracs are softer rubber therefore better on hard packed snow/ice. Both tires are great in deep snow.


Mine are 295/65/18 I think.
