Duratrac 285/60R20 vs Open Country AT II 295/60R20

[DatacomGuy]

Okay guys. Got narrowed down to these two tires. Currently running wrangler SR-A 275/60R20 (stockers, sucky)..

Any input on either one of these? Price is exactly the same. Toyo has 50K mile warranty, Duratrac has nothing. Duratrac is more aggressive looking, but has had sidewall issues in the past. Toyo OC's are.. well.. a great tire from what i've read.

I'm leaning towards the Toyo's.. but want/need some opinions and input.

Also, going from 275/60R20 to 295/60R20, will i have any changes to drivability? MIleage or power?

Just hit me.. Will i have rub issues with 295/60R20's?

We run duratracs on all of our work trucks. The trucks that stay on the mine site only get between 8 and 12k miles before they come apart. The truck I bring home has 17k miles on this set and they have 12% left according to the tire shop mechanic. That said, they do see more abuse than the average personal daily driver, but I still thought they would be a lot better. I would go for the toyos. My 03 Cummins had them on it when I bought it. I put a good 28-30k on them (hi way & hunting) and they were still in good shape when I got rid of it...

Where are you getting the prices from? The metric throw me off a bit, but I am gonna get "true" 35x12.5x20s soon enough. Whats those three tires exact height in inches?

 

[DatacomGuy]

Prices? Haven't talked prices yet.

I may end up sticking with a 275. I think the weights are just too much higher and it's going to cost me power, which i need in the mountains.

285/60R20 is 33.46" tall, 11.50" wide
295/60R20 is 33.90" tall, 11.60" wide

^^A Piece, wow, these companies are proud of those tires , LOL. I remember getting a set of four tires for my z28 back in the day for like a hundred bucks, LOL.

I have those duratracs in the size you posted. I've got about 13000 kms on them. Still look almost new. No noticed difference in ride. Possibly a little louder on the highway. And definitely look way more aggressive then stock.

Ive got about 25k kms on the same size duratracs, also still look like new, not much noticeable power loss if any

Thing about that price is it is about 100 bucks a tire to high for stock size and really can't compare tire prices from the past because in the last few years every manufacture had to raise prices by about 30%. My vote is Toyo's cause I have always had great luck with them and everyone that I have sold them too. I can't say the same about any tire in the GY brand range.

Unfortunately this is the only picture I have. My truck is being repaired from a collision and I got the shop to install a 2" level and new tires. These are Toyo AT 2s 295/65r20. This is one of the sizes that Toyo calls "extreme" and have a more aggressive look. I can't offer any feedback as to how they handle on the road but they look great and have awesome reviews.

Duratracs. They may look aggressive but ride quiet and perform amazing on and off road. I went through hell and high water to have them on this truck and don't regret it for a second. My last set went 42,000 Miles of HARD driving and still were not to the wear bars.

Toyos, I have them in 275/65/20 and they are the most capable tire I've ever had!
