    Thanks for the info. Im new to Tacoma world, still trying to figure out how to upload photos, not very user friendly site. However very informative. I appreciate all the feedback. Yes, the front mud flaps seem to be a universal issue with Taco"s, luckily only two bolts. Ugh still torn between the duratracs and Authorities lol.

    Goodyear fan I see. Ha ha. Don't know much about the duratracs. I like the side wall tread on the authority. That's what sold me. And to upload pics simply scoll down on a tread to the Upload a file (tab).... Then click or tap browse... Then photos. It will send you to your phone saved photos. Choose which photo. For multiple photos repeat. These steps. Then you will have the option to display the uploaded photos as a thumbnail or full image. I know what you mean not to user friendly but you will get it.

    Im curious if the Duratrac will be a softer ride then the Authority, since its almost identical tire? You mentioned a still ride with the Authority. A log ride of sorts lol

    I meant to say the authority is a stiff tire. You feel every bump in the road. But they are Lt tires. And if your worried about road noise; compare the space between the tread authority vs. Duratracs. The wider the spacing between the tread the more road noise. I can say the Authority has a lil road noise compared to stock tires. All in all if you stay with the All-terrain tire road noise shouldn't be that big of an issue. If you switch to a Mud-terrain tire most brands have alot more road noise.

    One more thing you should know is that the Goodyear authority is a Lt tire; which means light truck. Lt tires have a stiffer side wall than most passenger tires. Also most manufacturers will not warranty a LT tire on tread life.
