The st maxx coopers look pretty cool too. Big lugs and sidewall traction. You owe to to yourself to check them out

I put a set on my 2500HD about a month ago.  One of the few tires on the market with a 3 ply sidewall.

Does goodyear make a duratrac that big? I've talked to several people who are pretty happy with them on 3/4 tons. I like the look too. Might be an option???

I will never buy dura tracks our Goodyear for that matter again. Had a set of them on my Toyota. 9 flats in one hunting season. Never never never , pissed just thinking about it. It was all different tires too, not just one bad one

Huh...weird. I beat my Kevlar MTR's up real good and I'm very impressed. Both on our Ram and Tacoma. Any idea what was causing your flats?

Did they say what the main difference is between these and the AT2?

Strange, I've had mine since they came out and never had an issue and have out 50k plus on them. About this time next year I will most likely replace them.

Near as I can figure there just trash. My truck sees more dirt roads than most do and some of them are pretty rough. My buddy has them on his pavement princess dodge and loves them. I need more of of a set of tires then looks and a quite rid on asphalt, so like I said I will never buy a Goodyear product again let me down to many times on That set

Running a set of these for the last 3 years on my Chevy. Have worn evenly not to noisy works great when you let some air out in the mud, sand and snow. Still plenty of tread left for another year or two
Pretty sure these are brand new design. Looks like they will be my next tire  :twocents:
my bad  you're right I have the MT thread design very similar

My dad and my buddy both have 315/70/17 duratracs on their Ram 3500s. My dad's have less than 5000 miles on them and my buddy has about 20k on his. They both had flats during elk season. They don't seem very durable. I'm glad discount tire talked me out of them

Yeah, Good Years are junk. I had a set of new wranglers on my F150 when I bought it and the tread was coming off in half dollar sized chunks after about 9,000 miles. I bought a freightliner work truck this summer that came with new good years on it. After about 6,000 miles the tread was coming off in 2" strips and the sidewalls we're coming apart.  Just junk

I am running the Duratracks on my F150 and my little Toyota 4x4.......so far maybe the best tire I have owned......on the Ford in the last two years I have driven to Wyoming twice and one trip to Iowa last Christmas......they ride like a AT and throw mud and snow like a MT.....drive great on ice too. My only concern is they seem a little soft and when the truck is fully loaded with wet wood they seem to squish down a little more than I like.

I am comparing them to Mickey Thompson MTR and Toyo MT as the previous tires I ran on the Ford. 30K on them and they still look new and I have never experienced a flat...     Doubt they make a 37 so maybe this is a moot point.

The guys on the overland site seem to like Duratracs and they do a lot of offroading, but their use was on FJ's and 4Runners not full size pickups.

I know from your prior posts how picky you are with your truck - how it looks, how you use it and what you expect from it.
With that said, my gut says you will have buyer remorse over not going with the Toyo MT's again.
Both my Dodge SRW CTD trucks have the MT's in 35 12.50 18.  I have contemplated each time to switch to another and just can't do it so I bite the bullet and get the MT's.  My 2002 work truck is getting close to another set of shoes and at $440 a piece it's gonna be painful for them MT's. :(
That's just my .02 but I will be curious to see what you go with and your future report if you go elsewhere.   :tup:
