I have access to a password protected online resource provided to tire dealers by Goodyear (also has Dunlop and Kelly Tire). The site offers technical data and specs that are normally available to consumers but also specific ratings given to tires by Goodyear. The ratings are rated 1-10 and are in direct comparison with other Goodyear models not other tire brands. Here are a few of the specs I was able to pull, let me know if you want specs for another tire or size but these are the 3 that are available in Raptor size with 17" rims.

Awesome info. The Duratracs have been popping up in a lot of tire threads lately. Wish there was a direct comparison of those to the stock Raptor tires. Recent discussion seems to indicate the Duratracs are a better overall performer especially in snow or mud, but with maybe a weeker sidewall than the BFG's.
