Bigger problem with this debate is Subjectivity so I wouldn't say facts. It's only factual based on one person's opinion.

 

LOL

 

I just checked on this and the 265 70 17 are 458 per 2 after the 100 off. Am I doing something wrong or looking at the wrong thing

 

That link you quoted on my first post they were $484 for a pair of 2 and they list them at $522....... I'm so confused now....

Yeah Im not sure either. But thats not that great of a price anymore since i can get them for 950 installed, balanced and out the door. Plus knowing that i got them from a shop, they will be more willing to help if something were to be screwed up with one. thanks for the info though.

 

Just to Clarify, duratrac 265-70-17 will work fine on a all stock sport right? I already removed the air dam (damn ugly air dam).

 

Wow killer deal. Discount tire quoted something like 1300 installed last time I checked for this same tire set (C rated)

 

Deals like this come around every March and October each year!

 

Hahaha!! I only have about 1,000 miles on them so far. They are really soft tho. I guess we'll find out in the long run whether I wasted my money or not lol

 

And your "opinion" is a theory, where as mine is based on real world "BEEN THERE/DONE THAT" I'd say fact's since they are....

 

I told you I've done the same.

 

Yessir, that is what i have. One size larger than stock. No issues on or offroad.

 

You "tell me" with your unsubstantiated opinion that doesn't match what MOST people find to be true. That doesn't "tell me" anything.....other than you have a theory that has proven to be most unreliable.

 

I got rid if my duratracs in Load range c @25k, because the road noise just kept getting worse & became unbearable around 20k. Otherwise good tire. I have the stt max now...and they make almost no noise. And are better all around in performance & wear. I get about 1 mpg better with the same size 265/75/16.
I and all my normal passengers could NOT notice any difference in ride/stiffness going from C to E in my Tacoma

 

I found out that the Duratracs were smoother riding, quieter, and seemed to wear better when I ran quite a bit more air pressure in them. They "powder tested" good for a footprint around 29 or 30 psi. To get good wear and decent gas mileage, it took closer to 37 or 38. They rode like a rock at that pressure, but that's one of the negatives of some C tires. I'm back to E's and much happier with the results. There are trade offs with everything.

 

Popular opinion, facts and from my real world experience E tires are heavier, will negatively impact fuel economy and will provide a harsher ride. When you're driving a truck with a budget lift (5100s) I wouldn't expect you to be able to tell the difference however.

 

Budget lift....That's some funny shit there....


Stick with what you know.....which is apparently not a lot.

 

5100s are one of the cheapest ways to lift outside of using blocks and spacers. Yes lift and tires have an effect on ride quality.
