Very nice!

I currently have the BFG AT's but my next tires will be the Dura trac's or the Destination's from canadian Tire(same tire).

The BFG`s are OK, but I agree with others thaty are over rated. They hold and chuck rocks, shitty in clay mud (just ball up) and they hydroplane worse than any other tire I have owned. When you look at the tread design they have now way to pump the water outward.

I've had BFG AT's on a few of the trucks i've owned and they were a great tire, this time around i'm trying the Duratracs.

Nice. Any more pics or reviews of the Duratrac's when used offroad, rain, or snow compared to the BFG's??

Menametony · 10-31-2009, 04:52 AM

i say the duratracs.. everyone and their moms has the bfg's... but i also like how the bfg looks..

testedone · 10-31-2009, 07:48 AM

Yeah I just put the BFG's on mine a couple hundred miles ago, had I thought it out better I would have went with the duratracs.....

I have always had BFG tires on ALL my vehicles but I hate the rock throwing on this AT/KO's..it's strange I never noticed them do this before..

Jon4x4 · 11-02-2009, 04:37 PM

I really like my Bridgestone Dueler A/T's on my ranger. And i have gone through some sloppy shit without them being slicked.

i like my nitto terra grapplers

New duratrac 285/70/17s, I think my dog is more excited than I am

Krazie Sj · 11-03-2009, 08:02 PM

What'd those set you back?

EmoSlayer · 11-04-2009, 02:41 AM

$880.00 from a local shop, I was told that production was stopped on the duratrac, that's why they are getting really hard to find, could be up to a month until they are back in full production, this is what a supplier told a friend of mine.

unholycumulus · 11-06-2009, 04:35 PM

i got a quote from Costco for the BFGs (265 75 16) for $188.99 a tire (installed, for four = $889.46)

Do you all think thats a good cost? Anyone notice any issue with gas millage with the BFGs??

TRDBoy · 11-06-2009, 05:03 PM

Had BFG AT KO on my old Bronco. Never had a problem with them, decent manners on winter roads, and the tread lasted forever. Good all around tire. Pretty old design though. There's gotta be better technology available these days.

Then...I switched to MT's. HOLY SHIITE AND SUUNI! DON'T EVER BUY THESE IF YOU DRIVE WINTER ROADS! If I was on the slightest, I mean slightest, incline, I had to put it in 4wd just to move. Not to mention drifting into a snow bank at 45 mph. I'll never buy those again. My wife's Civic could run circles around that truck in ice and snow. No joke.

Worm · 11-10-2009, 05:13 PM

Been about a 1,000 since I got mine on. In rainy conditions they are great, feel planted to the road. As for off-road I had them in a little of mud sticky mud not watery mud, preformed very well. If you want a tire that can do it all this is the tire to have.

seems way to high, my dad got same tire, same size, and installed for $800

EverTaco23 · 11-12-2009, 09:50 PM

I got the BFG's now and like them, good in rain and descent in snow. But they dont clean out well at all. I even think the Duratrac's will do alot better in the snow and ice. Thats why Im probably ganna get them next.
