    looking at a few different tires. How do the Duratrac do in sand? I've seen them listed as all terrain but thru seem a bit aggressive.

    They do OK when aired down. About "average" for an all terrain tire when at full pressure. I've had mine in loose sand 3 times. 1st was with 38psi. I dug in fast. 2nd and 3rd time was with 22psi and 18psi. They did quite a bit better. Only thing I hve to compare them with were on other trucks though....
