Anyone slap a set of Duratracs on their Gen 2 yet? How has the road noise been if so?

Mine don't seem loud at all. lost .4 mpg though (35x12.5-17)
According to tirerack:
Duratrac:
315/70R17 >> Load range D >> 61 pounds
35x12.5-17 >> Load range E >> 68 pounds
KO2s (OEM):
315/70R17 >> Load Range C >> 65 pounds (for a C tire, this is heavy)
I assume your increase mileage was due to adding 3 pounds per corner?
Im not sure why. I guess its a little taller and a little heavier. (34.4" vs 34.8")
I realize why it is heavier, I meant I wasn't sure why I lost a half mpg.
I live in a rural area and drive dirt roads daily, so 10 ply isn't the worst thing in the world for me. Kinda wish I knew about the 315 and the d rating though, but oh well.
