So my Bfg ats are almost at an end and before winter im gunna need to get a new set. originally i was looking at the bfg km2s because alot of guys on here have them, but i do quite a bit of highway and usually have to deal with snow roads driving to work before the plows. So i was looking at the goodyear mtr's to compare them to the km2s and they sugested the duratrac. I took a look at them and they are really luggy, with alot of siping, and the snow traction is rated 10, so they seem good for me. They also have a good offroad rating, but not really sure how long they would last. Has anyone run them or heard anything about them, or any advice on a better tire. These were gunna run me $200 canadian, plus 20 install and ballance
Any opinions will be great
thanks

 

Everyone I've see that has them swear by them, havnt heard ANYTHING bad about them. And everyone said they are badass in the snow. Really considering them as my next tire if I dint get BFGs again

 

sweet, i wish i could get them in 32's tho, but with the lugs on these things, they might fill up alot better then the 31's i have now. whatcha think, does an inch either way really make the truck look better or really give me that much of an extra edge?

 

i'd want them in 32s

 

i would get 32's

 

well in the 32'a i cant get the duratracs, i could get the wrangler mtrs or the bfg km2 and there gunna cost about 50 more per tire

 

how come?

 

all they had listed for the duratrac were 31x10.5 or 33x12.5, ill look some other places and see if i can find them in a 32

 

ya i just checked no **** there not making them in 32's yet.

 

thats a shame, I was hoping to get a 32, but Im thinking i might stick with the 31s in this case just for the 50 less a tire, but im still not sure

 

body lift and 33's

 

haha temping, but would a 12.5 do alright on my alcoas?

 

Call Hills tire here in brantford area. They'll have em cheap and no tax

 

Yea thats my dilemna too, these would be my first choice if they came in 32's.

 

i love my duratrac's, i sure dont have anything to complain about

 

if you get them in metric sizes you can get pretty close to 32's but i have a set of 33 x 11.50 R16's and i love them they are great in mud which means that they should be great in snow too.

 

ya i think ill call hill and see what there worth there, and i think ill stay with the 31s with the duratracs and hopefully i dont regret it after haha, i looked at going for the metric, but with the sizes they had, there was only a 235 75 15 or something like that, and id rather on swap my rims, i love my alcoas, so it kinda kills my options. maybe when i call hill ill ask them for the prices on the km2 and the mtr at the same time, if i can get the km2s for around the same price then ill get them instead. its so hard to pick haha

 

i think i've seen them in metric close to a 32". i was looking at these and am pretty sure the metric 32" is there.

yup. here you go. it's even form the canadian site. 8th one down. not big enough? 10th down.

the 235 75 15 only works out to like a 28 tho

 

there is a 265/75R16 measuring 31.7 and a 285/75R16 that measures 32.8. i thought you had 18"s sorry. i just caught that.

 

ya but i dont want to go 16, i like my alcoas haha

 

i dunno then.

 

ya, thanks for your help tho, i appricate it, i just dont know if i should go 31 in these, or 32 in the km2s, maybe i could get the km2 siped out a bit for some better snow traction

 

id just groove the km2s if you want better traction. if you go 31 you may regret not going 32s so if it was me, id just get the km2s and then bust out the groover

 

im getting my 265/75-16 duratracs mounted tomorrow. should be pretty nice. i say go with the duratracs
