In a debate between these 2. Been on the forums all day searching and reviewing(some of you probably have seen my other tire size thread). I've narrowed it down to these two tires in a 315-75-16. I've read nothing bad about the DuraTrac's other than the side walls not being sturdy enough. However I haven't heard anything negative about the Kumho's other than seeing they weigh 15lbs more each than the goodyears! There is also only a dollar difference on tirerack so I just don't know what to get.

Going on a F350 crew cab. I also do some towing(trailer and car). Will be honestly used mostly on road but I live on a mountain and need the snow traction.

I have duraTracs on my Super Duty, my work truck and my Jeep. You wont find a better tire on the Market. Ive used each vehicle on the street and in the mud and they have never let me down. They are a little pricey but well worth the money.

 

Had my Duratracs for about 3 months now, and I LOVE them. I don't have sidewall issues. Keep the PSI up, and I doubt you will either. My rig weighs 8400lbs, and I'm making decent power, and I don't have any handling issues. I have noticed the "tread squirm" some people talk about once, hammering a hard right onto the access road into traffic.

 

Good/years all the way.

 

Haha, knew that was coming. Guess I'll just get them.

 

are the Goodyear's the same price?

 

They are the same. Difference of like 99 cents.

 

buy amrican.this is where we live.

 

Wow really? I'm not going to get into this debate but buying tires simply because there made in the USA would be the worst idea in the world. I'm buying them because they have more users word behind them.

 

I would also say goodyear...i have 31"x10.5"r15 goodyear wrangler authoritys on 2 of my trucks, and they are great tires

 

MacGSX thanks for saying that......

 

It's cool. Normally when I reply to a statement like that I get the response of "You're a communist!" Then I respond with really? Guess the past 6 years in the Marines were a waste of time... Haha. Oh well. Dude says buy American and can't spell or capitalize it correct... Sigh.

Goodyear it is. Thanks for the advice guys!
