Wrangler DuraTrac???

Kicking around the idea of swapping my Michelin's. I need a good tire that performs well in the snow since I will be spending a lot of time towing my sled trailer around the U.P.

The Wrangler DuraTrac looks like a decent option. Opinions?

I had the DuraTrac's on my '08 before I traded it in. I think there were about 50,000 miles on them.

Great tire, tough, grippy, wore well (rotated ever 10K)

They did get noisy, got louder as they aged. On my '08 diesel you would have to turn up the radio from 5% to 10% to cover the tire noise at 50+ MPH.

I like the good ole BFG AT's they are not going to last as long as michelins, I would get about 42k on michelins and 36k out of the BFG AT's but at least I had a tire that had some traction. and the AT's are great in the snow.

Just put 35 Duratracs on my Hummer H3 and love em so far. I am thinking of putting them on the 6.7 also. They are quite aggressive and are quieter than I expected. They are snowflake rated and are supposed to be great in deep snow....which I will be able to comment on soon up here in Montana. I had BFG AT's on the old truck and loved them too. The Duratracs are not as quiet as the BFG's, but then again look at the tread pattern.
