Who runs Goodyear Duratrac tires?
#46
Well I just called, and am gonna have to get a price somewhere else. Discount Tire wanted $1,108 out the door, $1,275 out the door with roadside certificates. WOW!!! That's all I got to say. A buddy of mine got a set of 35" Duratracs and aftermarket wheels for $1,400. So I am gonna have to price around I think. And that price is only a 285 tire.

The 325's were more. But I got 70 series and they only come in limited sizes. I really wanted a little bigger like 295 but would have had to go to the 305 which was 1.04" larger in diameter and they would barley rub. I have mud flaps on and they would have hit them for sure. Did not want any issues with rubbing and did not want to add a lift either. The 16" tires should be cheaper then the 18's too.

Cooper STT.. friend had the 305/70/16 on his 02 7.3 and they lasted about 45k, with burnouts and odd wear on the front end from ball joints. Know many people that run this tire and they are all very happy
Although i see the duratrac has the size i use (315/70/17) so i may look into these more...

Know anyone that has access to a wholesale tire distributor? At my work we get tires through a distributor for our fleet. I just had our guy check and I can get 295/70/18 Terra Grapplers for $210. Discount Tire wants $275 for them, and everywhere else I checked was in the same ball park. That's over $250 cheaper for the set of 4, and I'll just mount and balance them myself for free.

Got mine from tirepackage.com, stayed w/ the stock 265/70/17 and got them shipped to my door for a shade less than $800 after $150 in rebates. Had a local shop mount them. No roadhazard though.

Thank you for the tread lightly info. So that's $60 rebate from TireRack, and $100 dollar rebate from tread lightly which brings me down to about $880 out the door with no roadside hazard. Price is getting a little better to swallow now. Possibly might have them on by next week. Alright, now I am getting excited Still have a lot of work to do before hand though. Have to get ball joints and front joints before I am gonna go get them.

Alright. Got the funds all in order. Hopefully gonna get the tires mid next week. I am hoping to tackle the ball joints and u joints on Sunday or Monday. And then possibly get the tires on Tuesday or Thurday.
On a side note. Can anybody post a pic for the black wall tires on your truck? That is my biggest hang up. Really want the white walls and cant get that unless I go with a 285 tire. So let me see some pics please. Thx
