    Nice pic...

    I'm leaning towards the Duratracs in a 265/75/16 C...

    How do they ride?

    They ride awesome! Not loud at all, Not stiff at all, they just ride great!
    a contractor was at the tire shop remodeling, and he joked to me as they were putting on the tires-
    " oh yer gonna hate those tires", he chuckled.
    Im like" What?"
    Then he said he has them on his truck and thinks they are the best tires he's ever had, and his boss has them too, and drives gravel everyday with a lot of weight in his trailer, and they are holding up well with about 25,000 miles on them. So apparently they can handle some abuse too.

    Goodyear tells the tire shops to put the factory PSI when they mount any tires to avoid the TPMS from coming on. So whatever it says between the doors. I think its around 32-35PSI?
    Obviously its freezing ass cold here in Iowa and tire pressures can fluctuate, but they ride nice where they are. i think max pressure is 50 PSI on the C's and 80 on the E's
    If I need to haul anything I will put more air in.

LED light bar in the lower grill. Trailer plug relocate. Auxiliary reverse LED's wired in to be manual or auto on when in reverse.
    so far so good , I got the 265/75/16, they are impressively quite for the aggressive tread pattern, mileage wise I hope they can muster out 40k, my last set were the Bridgestone Revo's (52K and still going) but they are on back order here, so the tire shop suggested these and for around 190.00 each I gave them a shot, only time will tell at this point.

    $640 installed for mine. My only complaint is that the outside blocks on my front tires are wearing away too quick but I think that has more to do with a camber problem than the tires themselves
