    The IFS will be long gone before and motor swaps happen.

    Only problem I dont like about the duratracs is they are on the small side of 33's. My dad has them on his f250(v8) work truck, I know wieght of the truck causes tire wear too but these tires wear fast. He's probably got 15 to 20,000 out of these tires and they are almost bald.

    Yeah they are not great for full sized rigs I have over 10,000 miles on mine and they still look new.

    I saw a 2006ish tahoe with duratracs on it the other day, looked like the only actual modification to the vehicle but they made it real chunky, nonetheless. When I trade up to a 4x4 i'm DEFINITELY getting duratracs.

    Yeah, I don't blame you... I know they happen, but you'd have to put a heck of a lot of fertilizer on your money tree ;)

    BTW, what backspacing do you have on the wheels? How hard would it be for a guy with little/no experience to cut off the stuff to clear 15x10's like you did?

    The Backspacing is 3.76" and you could do a lot less cutting with new UCA's i still have stock and my caster is pretty bad so my tire is close to the wheel well. I still rub off road but there is really nothing i can do about that but on the street I'm not rubbing at all.
