    My Duratrac 265/75/16's balanced out really nice. Very little for balance weights on any tire and no shimmy/vibration at any speed. Running them at 38 psi. A slightly rougher and noisier ride than the mushyOem Adventurer P's they replaced. But that was to be expected. But well worth it for the looks they give and their superior off road performance.

    @zippsub9, my brother, I love him!
    Your truck looks sick with those tires and lift. I still plan on keeping stock wheels as well, I think they look great and would be cheap to replace if they got damaged.

    I've had Duratracs and the new BFG KO2s on my 2008. The Duratracs are great in mud and deep snow, but they are LOUD and need to be constantly rotated (like, every 3000 miles) or they start cupping badly. I'm much happier with the KO2s. They're quieter, better on wet roads, better in light snow, and only slightly lacking in the mud and deep snow department vs the Duratracs. And after 10,000 miles on the KO2s, they appear to be wearing much more even. I rotated at 5,000 miles.

    I'll be putting KO2s on my TRD Pro when I get it at the end of October. In the biggest size I can put on that thing (still have to determine what size that is).

    I agree with this for the most part. The BFG ko2 is a more tame off road tire, and better on road tire. The duratracs are a beast in the mud and traction off road, and are slightly under the ko2 on road performance. So basically what I'm trying to say is if your not off road often don't get the duratracs, get ko2. If you don't even off road don't get ko2, get something even more tame like wildpeaks P rated. Get a tire for what you intend to do most, don't be a poser and get a tire for looks like most people. You'll regret it.

    Pics of both on my truck.

    I had my 265/75/16 duratrac for about 10k now. They are great on mud and sand. They are decent on rocks and wet roads. Haven't try it yet on snow. After almost 10k miles they are at 14/32. This is just 1/32 less than new KO2.

    i dont go offroad i like the duratracs because they perform very well in the snow. no matter how much snow falls i have to get to work to plow snow.

    Any of you guys have updates on the Duratracs? I’m leaning towards them.

    I have had duratracs on several trucks and always loved them. I put them on my 2017 trdor with 16inch wheels the day I picked it up at the dealer but by 20,000 miles they were slipping more on wet pavement and I had to replace them at 35,000 because they were cupping and getting too loud on the highway. I went back to the kevlar because I'm seldom off road.

    Had a similar issue with Duro 265/75/16's as well. Mine occurred just around 105k where I would get a slight vibration. Speed up or slow down it would disappear. Took em back for a re-balance and at the same time, had them mark the the weight used on each rim. Used the tires with the least weights added on front and the ones with most lead on rear. Problem solved. And that was well over a year ago.
