    Trying to decide on either the good year wrangler duratrac or the bf Goodrich ko2. I'm getting them in 285/75r16 and putting them on my 2011 dcsb TRD? I do 80% paved road 15% dirt and mild to medium rock crawling and 5% mud snow that's not including the average snow we get around where I live which isn't much

    I'm pretty sure 265/75r16 is the largest this tire is made in. I haven't ever seen it offered in 285/75, but I could be wrong!

    265 is far superior to the 285 anyway. Just like the DCLB is far superior to the DCSB.

    I think there may be a thread reviewing each tire if you have a look, and they would be in the tires and wheels section.

    I love my wrangler duratracs. Have about 20000 miles on them with still have 80% tread left. Perform very good on and offroad with little road noise. Ive had the old bfg all terrains ko which have a very similar tread pattern to the ko2 and liked them as well but they dont clean out mud very well in my experience 294189d2cab8e8ee4a186000414c79ee_21d12a109d53d522a631370d9c2a1407c818b80b.jpg

    Not yet but I've been doing countless hours of research and am ready for the trimming if any is needed. I work in a full fab/welding shop so I don't think I will have to much of a problem, I hope.
