Check it! New tires

[Righteyeblind]

Have two friends that have them on Ranger 4x4's. They are stupid loud on the road!!! But they DO look good!

Not loud for how aggressive they are really.

In the snow they are amazing also Jordan. I had a guy praise them the other day saying he drove from Fairbanks to Homer(530 miles) with quite a bit of snow and thought he was in 4 wheel the whole time but was in 2. The open shoulders help throw the snow instead od hold it in.

I know they'll perform great I just hope I get
some good mileage out of them.

Looks good Jordan. :thumb: How were they to balance? And how much siping is there? Thanks.

They balanced pretty easily and didnt take a whole lot of weight. One tire was a little bit worse than the others. Ill get a picture of the tread for you. I have a feeling these things are goin to kick total ass this hunting season.

How have these tires held up for you? I'm thinking about getting some for pulling but they are going to be my dd tires too. They also need to hold up to pulling a 33' fifth wheel camper all over the US. Its a tall order for a tire

They are holding up well with 20k on them. They might be too aggressive for what you are wanting to do however.

thanks for the reply
I ran firestone destination m/t's doing all these same things and they were awesome. maybe I should just go with another set of those. The duratracs looked like a good tire to try too but you know how it is, the grass is always greener and I want to try something new

Well if you want an aggressive tire these are hard to beat IMO. Best tire I've had in the snow hands down and great tread life as well as load capacity. I'll take a picture of the tread

how are they on wet pavement? I have the old style Mt/rs, but hate the way they handle on wet pavement. Was planning on going to Bfg ATs, but may go this route

good question! that's the only beef I have with the firestone's is the wet traction and light snow isn't the greatest. The duratracs look like they would be better with all the siping on the tread. They just need to be a hard enough compound to hold up to towing abuse.

BFG AT is a terrible tire. Had two sets. The duratrac will make the BFG feel like an ice skate on wet and snow.
