Replaced Duratracs with Patagonias just for stronger sidewall. Lil stiffer but not much ride difference. Duratracs were good - but 2 not 3 ply sidewall. Don’t think you can beat duratracs on ice packed snow

If I remember right right bought online at Amazon or walmart. For a pretty reasonable price.I do remember les swabs was gonna charge me 300 a tire for there brand.Got the Patagonia for like 150 a tire ,that's half the price.
Cooper ST Max or Goodyear Duratrac. My last three sets of tires of been Duratracs and they've outperformed the BFG's and Toyo's by a longshot.

Worst tire I have ever had on a pick up. 20K miles they start getting loud and bad on wet pavement. No noticeable wear. 30K miles they howl and have a nice howl vibration. Currently, at 42K miles they get terrible traction on wet pavement, make the inside of a new truck sound like a Willies Jeep with 1940 military surplus tires. All my rigs have BFGs. Waiting for winter to ditch the misery of the Duratrac hell.
Duratracs on jeep and chevy 3/4 crew long box. performing wayyyyy better than BFG's for me.

Duratraks are junk compared to BFGs from day one. I drive up and down the west cost summer and winter. The Duratraks are probably the worst tire I've ever had on a vehicle
They came on the 1500 AT 4. I've had 3 sets of BFGs on my 2500, 3 sets on my F 350. All got 50k wore nice and great traction till they're down to nothing. The Duratracs on our 2020 at 4 with 40k look great. They just sound like a B 17 bomber going down the road. That sucks ass in a new truck. And they don't get good traction
LOLOL.....at 20K, 2 sets of BFG's I had in a row would not pass the penny test (2nd set was warranty to cover the poor performance of the 1st set).....@ 30K I would have been running on my rims. To each their own. Also, if you are using these type tires to "drive up and down the west coast" you may want to look at different tires for highway driving. JS
