    Around.
    Vehicle:
    '11 DC OR Timberland Mica. 6 speed.
    Leer 100xr with adventure package, duratrack's, weathertech's, demello sliders, billie 5100's all around, URD short shifter, Diff breather mod. Hiese lightbar. Grillcraft grill. PIAA 520 severere weather driving lights. Other random stuff as well.
    if snow is a factor to you whatsoever, the duratrac is your only real option (unless you choose to sipe the mtr).
    i have seen the mtr in the snow. It works, but not well. But i have seen the old mtr get traction in places it did not deserve to, and if they made the new one the same, then its a very valid option (for all things but snow)
    The mountain snowflake symbol on tires is not something they just hand out, and the duratrac is the only one that carries it of the two.

    I have had both and they are both good tires, $600 is a good price for Duratracs and a great price fro MTR K's. MTR's are white out only, Duratracks are selectable until a certain size then they are white out only as well.

    hows the tire hum inside the cab on the mtr k's? only thing thats holding me back from pulling the trigger on the mtr k's is that 1) duratracs quiet hum during hwy speeds 2) my Taco is my DD, so it see pavement 90% of the time 3) duratracs snow rating on snow/ice which is a +, since i usually go snowboarding every season @ big bear. 4) the option of running the duratracs with OBL instead of OWL.
