I heard the Duratracs are a pain to balance, I'm assuming thats why the tire shops arent a big fan of them. A buddy of mine had his balanced no problem tho, maybe its just the operator trying to get them balanced lol

Very possibly Brandon. Well this is gonna be a DIY. Buddy has a balancer and tire changer so all I have to buy is the tires.

Chris I will look at hankook. I'm looking for something that has a good snow and mud rating. I love my duratracs. They do all that I ask and aren't bad ont he road noise. That's why I keep coming back to them.

Lmao. They were cheaper than the Duratracs and really they were what dave had and he seemed please so why not save the money and give them a shot. Lil over 900 to get them. I have to go pick them up when they come in. So Maybe if things go right we may have a small smoke show to end the dead duratracs.

These things are the *******. Feels good for once to drive without rattling my teeth out. Only drawback... a little rub at full lock. Button some spacers can't handle.

Love them so far. Can't wait to get them dirty!!! Aggressive and still quiet. Feels weird having an extra inch of clearance. I know its only an inch but still.
