    I have 20k on my duratracs, Ill post a pic tomorrow. They get extremely loud the more wear you put on em. Like really loud, just a forewarning, my only complaint, awesome in snow, rain, mud, anything you throw at em

    Oh boy..my local tire shop is wanting to get General Grabbers AT2 but would like to have all around great tires (snow, rain and dry pavement). Mud occasionally. Thank you for all your responses. :bowdown:

    Toyo Open Country tread life SUCK. If they make it to 30K, consider yourself lucky. Go with the Goodyears or even better BFG KO2s.

    Do yourself a favor and go 265/70/17. They'll give you a little more height with no rub issues. Enjoy the new ride. I'm thisclose to purchasing a '16 myself.

    I've been running my grabbers a/t2 since 2012 same time I bought the taco. I have 265/70 17. In my personal opinion it's a great all round tire. Last couple years in New Jersey we have been hammered with snow. Never been stuck yet. Good traction in wet weather and not crazy loud on the road. Best bang for my buck

    Also I only have 32k mi on the taco and the tires have about 30k and still have plenty of tread life left
