    Are those C load duratracs? Considering the exact same combo...interested to hear about noise and fuel efficiency.

    Ya I got the C load instead of the E because I didn't want my ride to be to stiff. I love em, I hear a little bit of a howl on the freeway but otherwise I don't notice much noise difference and for fuel efficienecy I lost 1 mpg per my onboard computer, haven't gotten better than 18mpg since I got them which I don't think is bad

    Good to know! I had KO's on my last '16 taco and they felt like bricks. I've decided I won't be doing that again. That little v6 doesn't like un-sprung weight in the lower RPMs. I figure if if can keep the tire and wheel weight down, it will go a long way in terms of driveability.

    Really? I would've thought since the ko2 are supposed to be an alterain they would've been bad ... Ya accelerating from a dead stop I can feel the weight difference but it's negligable

    Looks Great. I'm taking my KO2's off this weekend and replacing them with the c-load duratracs!

    Truck looks great! I'm waiting for my Ray 10's to be delivered from the 14th restock, I was able to grab some 16's myself.

    I had a set of Duratrac C and they felt soft like the stock tires which some may or may not like. I didn't like it. They were used with 5k and had some tire noise. I got KO2 in the same size and of course E and even though they are heavier, they are also firmer which I liked. My Off Road went from a floaty Lincoln Town Car/Cadillac ride to a more SUV ride. They are also quieter than Duratracs.

    Now I have Cooper ST Maxx in 285/75r16 and they are definitely heavier but pretty quiet but not as quiet.

    Awesome! Post some picks once you do the swap and tell me how the road noise compares

    Thank you!... I love the ray 10's so far well worth the wait and money, I got their spline lugs as well... Which finish did you get?

    I haven't taken the tires off road yet but I'm doing a trip down to socal this weekend and I'm gonna hit some trails while I'm down there so hopefully I can see how well the c load performs off road

    I've actually already had a set of C load Dura Tracs. Don't mind the noise at all but we couldn't get them balanced. I'm going to try again with a new set.

    My Canopy is so light that I can quickly unbolt the clamps with my cordless and lift it off by myself in 20 minutes. It's like 75lbs or less. I do remove the yakima before taking the cap off. The yakima with my maxTrax, Tow Rope / recovery gear, & random misc stuff weighs almost as much as the canopy but it also comes off in less than 5 minutes. So I've got less than 200lbs of extra weight on the tires & rear suspension. People laugh at my old school aluminum canopy but I'm really happy with it. Especially with the pop-open side windows. Those are awesome. Oh, The Aluminum rack on top also weighs like 10 lbs or less (included in the 75lb total)
