It's that time, New Tires! Suggestions?

[skippy]

i have had mickey thompsons and now have hancooks both wear great
i got 120k miles out of the m/t mtz.
so far i have about 40k out of the hancooks and there is minimal wear.
both are a bit noisy on the road but i just wind the windows up and turn on the radio can't hear a thing.

I am going to try the Pro Comp MT2 next I think...

But I got different driving conditions to deal with!

I was curious cause I'm looking at getting 315/70/17s... I'm not really needing tires at the moment. Just wanting... Didn't know what kind of deal you were willing to make. If it was something I couldn't pass up... But I'd have to buy a 5th spare and get them mounted... Not to mention shipping... Thanks though.

Spent the last two days on the trails around Fairplay/ Leadville, Buena Vista, como..... 2 days on the muddy trails and muck. Yes it sleeted and rained the entire time. Way fun.......first real test for my Duratracks. As I said....used to be a jeep guy and have tried many tires. Only had to put in 4 wheel twice. These tires are monsters. Once again. Just my humble opinion.

Nope! Bucky's Pats didnt take much from looking at rim and they are smooth and quiet on the road. I went with DynaPro Atm's. The dynaPro Atm got rid of a bad shimmy shake I had with Goodyear that came on Happy. Lol! The gy were brand new on front.

I've got these tires on my truck. They came on it from the dealer... I took the truck in for an alignment after I cranked the torsion bars and had em balance all 4 tires while they were messing with it... It seems like they had a heck of a time getting them balanced. There's a crap-load of stick on wheel weights on the inside of my rims. I dunno if aftermarket rims has anything to do with it but it doesnt ride down the highway as smooth as I think it should. It's especially noticable if the tires air pressure varies by a few psi. I usually run 32-34psi... I had the same issue with the General Grabber AT2s I had on my jeep. I can't wait to get some 315/70/17s but I'm too cheap to ditch the tires since they have lots of life left. And I dunno if it's a problem with all ATs but it seems like I'm always getting rocks stuck in the tread all the time causing that annoying clicking noise driving down the road.

If you end up leaning toward the BFG AT's, take a look at the General Grabber AT2's first. I've run both in the past and I like the tread pattern of the Grabbers better and they are a bit less money than the BFG's.

 

[TANDREW]

what size are those Grabbers?

I really like my duratracs.
