    Both great tires.

    Duratrac are a better winter tire but they are known for balance and weak sidewalls

    BFG A/T are great all around tires but can be expensive

    I like the BFGs personally, because I rarely deal with snow at all, and the strong sidewalls of the BFGs hold up a lot better here in New Mexico
