They came on my truck when I bought it. It's a 13chevy 2500hd 4x4. I put close to 80k on that first set. Just got off a set of the goodyear ultra terrain ats which weren't that bad. Just didn't get the miles like the duratracs. So now I just got a set of the duratrac rts plus a new set of bilstein 5100 shocks on all 4 corners and it drives nicer then when I got it! Best tire for me here in the cascade mtns in Washington state.

I've been a Duratrac fan for years except for the noise and performance on ice. I recently purchased a set of RTs, and after 1,200 miles, which included very icy conditions, can attest those two issues have been resolved. I'm extremely pleased with the new RTs on my 2013 Jeep 2 door, Rubicon. I also love the 3 ply sidewall and can run them comfortably at 28 psi on the highway.

I ran a set of the old DuraTracs and was not impressed by their wet snow and ice performance. I tried a set of the new Goodyear Wrangler Ultra-Terrains and fell in love! Amazing grip in all conditions along with incredible wear. I was hoping that the new DuraTrac RTs would upgrade to the Ultra-Terrain rubber compound, but the rep said it was the same old compound. Too bad. I may try the new RTs if I can't get the Ultra-Terrains in a bigger size.

Put 400 miles on my new RT’s over the weekend and they seem quieter than my last set. Got 70,000 miles on an ‘05 Grand Cherokee with the last ones and the ones on my Dodge 2500 are holding up well with about 40,000 miles. They are loud as hell when they get around 60 or 70% worn but what mildly aggressive tires don’t?

Any suggestions? Was looking at the Nitto Ridge Grapplers but read mixed reviews.

You going to get mixed reviews on EVERY tire. It's down to the driver in the end. Some love 'em… some hate 'em. There is no such thing as a tire that everyone loves. You just need to decide what's right for you…. not what's right for the other guy.

@jlarry1 5 ай бұрын

Never had an issue with sidewall failure, but to be fair I only ever took on one two day trip in the mountains. The wet traction truly sucks, but snow traction is quite good. It’s even fairly competent in the mud, I’m really looking forward to buying a set of these and try them out. Lastly a little detail often ignored is how light the original duratrac weighs, the unsprung weight comes with many advantages.

This video just leaves me with more questions. Assuming the Oz market spec is no different than US spec, where Duratracs have been a huge success. The new RT is available both in LT and non-LT in the US. Both 3PMSF rated in the sizes for my F-150 (275/60-20). Both E load rated, but the LT has a higher service description (123/120 vs 115). Not sure of sidewall ply differences in the RT vs LT-RT.

The new Duratrac RT’s are going on the Patrol today. My only beef with Goodyear is this.. The original Duratrac was the perfect tyre for those wanting a reliable all terrain with the look of an aggressive mud terrain tyre, all you had to do was introduce the 3 ply side wall.. why did you have to go and ruin the look of the side biters, they looked so much better before..
