Let us know how they handle in the snow. I have heard Goodyear duracraps are good in the snow. Especially after they look like 1980’s rear wheel drive snow tires. Lol.

Hey! Feels like I haven’t seen you on here on a while!

I had the duratracs and they were pretty decent in the snow. We had some deep stuff and my truck was basically a tank. Now, in 2wd it was useless. But 4wd a tank. I just had cooper discoverer AT3 XLT tires installed and from what ive read they are pretty good.

Ice is the real ******. Unless running a true dedicated snow tire anything is useless on the ice but even then it’s sketchy at best.

I’ve waited till first week of Nov before, and regretted it ... I wash up the Summer wheels and tires before I put em away, and that’s no fun in the cold ... 70 and sunny ... The beer tasted good

I live downwind of lake Ontario north of Syracuse NY, we get snow by the foot here lol sometimes 3-4 ft at a time. Just put fallen wildpeak AT3W on my truck because of the 3 peak snow rating of them, we will see how they do this winter.

I have been busy building a new fab shop. Please make sure to do a snow review on the AT3’s vs Duratracs this winter. Curious to see how they compare.

That’s no excuse!

I’m curious as well. The duratracs were decent in 4x4. 2wd not the greatest. Wet not the greatest.

So far these have better wet traction and quieter. I’m really impressed so far.

I’m having trouble finding a transport company to bring my ram down to NC. I got quotes from $600-$1100. Hoping my old neighbor who owns a repo business can haul it down for me for around $600.

Get on a cheap flight and drive it down?
