Those are the duratracs right? I'm really considering slipping a set of those on my truck in about a year, keep us posted on how you like them. Such as road noise, wear, traction in different conditions, etc. I've run MT's since I was a teenager, and I think I'm ready to go with something slightly less aggressive. Your trucks looking good.

Road noise is minimal, Snow traction is unbeatable, They claw right through mud as they should. I don't like any other tires after having these, and I dread the day Goodyear stops making them. I would recommend them to anyone that spends a lot of time on the highway (I drive 35,000 + a year), and wants supreme traction in all scenarios, and the E rated tires I just put on have a 3800lb weight rating, so they are great for towing. I think this is the most well rounded tire that you can buy!

Thanks for the response, I like their looks and have yet to hear anyone bad mouth them. I think I'll try a set after I finally get my alignment nightmare figured out. No one can get my truck dialed in and it has eaten about half the tread off my high dollar Coopers, driving me crazy.

That was one of the reasons I didn't want or lift or level. No realignment

No, I too run the same size tire with no lift. Ever since replacing the ball joints I've had issues and everything up front is tight. I think my main problem is going for the lifetime alignment from a chain shop run by flunkies instead of a higher end place. They put it on there big, pretty, brand new machine and I watch them do it, monitor shows everything in "specs". My truck has turned into a tire eating machine, doing burnouts is one thing but this isnt cool. Those big meats are expensive.

Sounds very frustrating!
