Which tire? 35" Grabbers or 315 Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac?

[BIRDMAN]

this is a moot point as far as i care, because i need lightweight tires that will perform in mud and snow. i don't blast through the desert much here in MA. the BFG's may be better for what the Raptor was designed for, but the Duratracs will perform much better for me and my driving habits. plus saving 5+lbs per corner can't hurt.

Duratracs also seem to be cheaper. I say, if you don't need the extra strength sidewalls and would like to see improvement in mud and snow then why not? The only downside I see is that the Duratracs are worse in comparison to the BFG's in road noise.

So much depends on how you intend to use them. My driveway is off-road, and my most common drive is less than a mile of pavement mixed in with eleven miles of dirt road. Add in the fact that it is all over 8,000' ASL with lots of ice and snow in the winter, and the Bridgestone AT Revo is my favorite. If you never deal with ice and snow, then it's probably not the best choice.

In the snow, Birdman, you should get Duratracs! In my opinion, they are best offroad tires for snow, except for snow specific tires (Continental's ExtremeWinterContact LT, is a great snow/ice tire, not so much off roading)

is this true? not that i care but i was reading that the duratracs are exceptionally quiet

 

[Bullishone]

Not true. The Duratracs are quiet. I note zero road noise from the tires.

I don't think you will be happy with the Generals.
