Yeah the ones on the stock wheels got sheetrock dust on them so they look like they are bald but not even. I think they are just shy of half a dime to right at a half a dime. Couldn't get the pics to come out and was to lazy to take them over to the window for light.

I think it is important that you select your tires for your purpose and what you can tolerate!
"My purpose is the most bad ass tire I can find and I can tolerate poor performance in rain and snow with a high noise level"
"My purpose is the best tire in rain and snow, quiet on dry roads at highway speeds, with great performance off road but I will get stuck in a mud bog…"
I stay out of mud bogs...

Dodge... enough said! I had the mud grapplers and the roommate had the stock BFGs during the blizzard and he was pretty white most of the time. Trick is to air these grapplers down for ice and they are like paddle tires in the snow.

Let’s get real: all multipurpose tires are compromises!
You can make a single purpose tire that is outstanding for its use, like a slick racing tire for a particular temperature range on dry smooth surfaces; anywhere outside that narrow window and the tire sucks!
Any ‘Not winter rated tire’ will have rubber that will turn to ‘rock hard’ in temperatures below freezing, will never grab on icy (or hard packed snow) roads, and on cold dry roads will wear out extremely quick!

Like I said in my previous post, the duratracs are 7 ply, 2 of which are sidewall. It's listed on the sidewall of the tire although its hard to see.

Ok, I read through this thread and noticed that there was a consensus on the Duratrac being a good tire for regular every day, highway, some rain, longer than average life (at least that's what everyone seemed to be saying).
Here we are, 1 year later, and now I am in the market for tires. Has that general opinion changed or stayed the same?
I called a couple of places and I got recommendations for Nitto Terra Grapplers, Hankook Dynapros, and they were gonna check on the Procomp Xtreme AT in our size (doesn't look like it). This obviously added to my confusion.
Just as an FYI, my truck has not been off-roading or anything, I live in Miami where we get a lot of rain, and my stock tires lasted me all of 22,000 miles which freaking sucks.
Any help would be awesome. Also, does anyone have a reputable and cheap place to buy from.
Thanks,
Cesar
P.S. I hope no one minds that i brought this thread back to life.

Falken Wild Peak has won many fans this year. One of the feature that swayed me was the speed rating meets or exceeds the oem BFGs. I bought the Americas Tires (Discount Tires) version called Rocky Ridge. Very happy with wet/dry on/off road behavior. A couple threads about them. Check em out then let us know what you chose.

You drinking that e151 again? Or does "saposeto exselarate" really mean something?
