Goodyear Duratrac

lilnotts · January 24, 2010

Just wondering who is running them and what are your thoughts on them? So far from what I can tell they look good but haven't found much as far as treadwear. Thinking about getting the 295/65R18's for my truck.

I'm also interested in the Duratracs, so I will be watching this thread for feedback.

BTW, what lift do you have that you are able to put on this size (295/65/18) tire that is a little over 33"?

Im interested as well, Over on cumminsforum they have had positive reviews. Great tread wear and awsome performance in mud and snow. I will be getting the 285/65/18s once I get my tax return.

I would love to have these tires...from what i have heard they are good in snow and being an aggresive A/T they look to be decent in the mud. Problem is the cheapest i found them locally is $234 plus mounting and balancing. They do look awesome though.

i currently am running them as 33's. i have had them on my truck for around 12,000ish miles and i drive from ohio to michigan and back every weekend and i havn't noticed any signs of wear yet. What i have noticed though is that they arent that great when there is a little over a dusting of snow on the road but once you get to the deep stuff its a tottaly different tire. In ohio we had snow up to my front bumper and my truck went through it no problem, i also towed a few cars out of parking lots from that snow storm. They are a little bit pricey but they are worth it.

Does anybody else have these in 295/65R18? I'm interested in pictures!

I got the duratracs about 3 weeks ago and love them. They look like a mud tire, real meaty. Everybody loves them. Going down the highway they are very quiet and very resonsive. Very excited for winter to come! Hope this helps!

What size? Any pictures to share?

I have the duratracs in 245/75/16 on my 05 2500 xtended cab long box i have put 22000 miles on them they are about ready to be repalced but are hands down the best snow tire i have ever run i work construction in vermont. i will definatly be buying another set. my aonly complaint is that when i first put them i could feel the tall soft tread blocks wiggle in the corners making the rear of the truck feel loose but you get used to it.

Any other feedback fellas?

I just got mine! I have 285/75R/16. I haven't really put any miles on them yet. I will when I go Wisconsin in December. So far so good. The only issue that I had was that my sensors did not like the low air pressure, for a smoother ride. So i ended up putting like 70+ psi in the rear and the same for the front to get the sensors to read normal. By the way these are on stock rims.

70 PSI? I bet that's like driving on iron!

wastrong21 · October 22, 2010

it sure is! I don't now how to get around the sensors to make it smoother, so for now I will leave it alone.
