Just buy one of each and leave the factory tire on the 4th rim. Or start one more thread about the same thing.

Go back to bed OLD MAN

I have 285/60/20 Goodyear Duratracs which thus far seem really good & they have an aggressive off road look to them as well. They have a excellent winter rating & review, might be worth checking into.

Thank you D-man for demonstrating some maturity unlike the two infantile boys above, they probably haven't received their 2 o'clock baby bottle and bibs yet (poor guys, hang in there!). Anyway, I have looked into the DuraTrac, but I was little worried about the road noise:/ How would you rate the road noise? Thank you again.

Feeling the love - point is that you started the same thread a few days ago. Add to it rather than starting yet another thread about the same thing.

Love the PM

Let's play nice, eh?

Yeah, probably should have just been a post in the other thread, but it's not a big deal.



Problem is - You can't go wrong with ANY ONE of those tires you have up there!

Oh and I'm not a big fan of the Goodyear Duratracs on a full size truck. Nice tire for a Wrangler or a mid-size SUV, but IMO the sidewall strength is not there for a heavy truck. They routinely get bashed by the diesel crowd. Riding around on soft/weak sidewalls can also kill fuel economy, it's almost like driving around on aired down tires. Sorry D-man, but that's just my opinion.

IMO the ATZ would be about equal to the Terra Grappler in what it can do. The Nitto might be a shade quieter and have a slight advantage on wet pavement (where it is about the best tire out there), the ATZ would get it big time on longevity and probably be a little better in mud due to the larger shoulder lugs. I personally know someone with 80k+ miles on a set of ATZs on his work truck for his Heat & A/C business.

The FCII (which like the Terra Grappler) I own. It's a fantastic tire that bridges the gap between an A/T & an M/T tire. A bit more aggressive and better suited off-road than the others, but a bit noisier than any of the others on pavement. Life is up there, probably not ATZ up there, but much better than average. A great choice if you live on pavement Monday - Friday and play/hunt/fish/camp hard on Saturday & Sunday...

The Dura Grapp is an awesome tire, but it likes life on the pavement. It is an ultra-popular tire with diesel guys who haul HEAVY WEIGHT regularly. You'll about break a frame before you'll over-load this tire. Just like the Terra Grappler, it's also a very good wet pavement/snow/ice performer. BUT the weight handling has it's drawbacks. If it's on a relatively light truck, it can be a bit harsh. I'd leave this tire for the 4x2 CTD guys who pull goosenecks cross country myself...

You mad, bro?
