Sizing help on Duratracs

[bcjohnson22]

After reading the countless reviews and watching the countless videos on duratracs I am pretty well convinced this is a quality tire. Regardless of the conditions. But when it comes to sizing I'm not sure what I want to do. So I thought I'd ask you guys what you thought. I know these tires are a little lighter than stock, but I was wanting to go 35 range I think. I want a little wider stance than the stock also. Want that aggressive look but I don't want a big offset. Thanks in advance!

Pictures would be appreciated!

Here ya go- Love them. Same size as stock 34.5 tall (biggest one they make) but the actual tread width is wider it seems. They are 315/70/17 they look wider than stock for sure but not to crazy. I run them on method standards

any experience in the snow with the duratracs, how about street manners and tire life?
Thanks, Jim

How much of a difference in height is there between the 315 and 325? Is it really noticeable is my real question. I see you either sacrifice a little height for a little width, or vise versa.

Were you seeing more ice and deep snow? or was it mushy crap on the road?

Also punctures? i take it you were proper wheeling if you were getting punctures?
