Tire recomendations

Thoughts on the Goodyear Duratrac's?

They are the go-to tire up north, nothing else seems to come close in snow/ice performance. That said, the consensus seems to be that they run loud compared to the KO2s. @ZaneMasterX might have some input

They are a little louder than the stock KO2's, but not enough to bother me.

Ok tried 3 different sets,
Duratrac to loud would hum loud and ruff riding, looked good though and better in the wet than BF.
then i switched to the nitto grap g2 heavy and mpg when down, not as loud as the dura trac but to me still to loud and had a pulsing hum, good traction though. I forgot to get that pic. Then went to the Mich LTX the largest they sell 295/70-18 .
yes they are not as rugged, but are load E like the other tires. Wish it was at least a D but with it aired down to 38psi oh so quite, amazing handling, wet traction much much better, 59 lbs its lighter and good for Ice. Long wear. I give up on ruggedness for all the other positives. Ive seen others use these tires rock climbing not the best for that but iam 90 percent on the road. Oh picked up 3mpg and when you floor it you can feel the difference because of weight and traction.

Sounds awesome but looks not so much. I respect your sacrifice for all the benefits but I just couldn’t be happy there. Sucks

Opps, sorry, deleted my post about that version of Pirelli tires after reading the tirerack comparison on a new F150.

Continental TerrainContact A/T - Size: LT315/70R17 was the hands down winner in their test. good luck

Looks like Chuck Norris wearing ballet shoes. J/K as long as you like them that's all that matters.
