Thanks for the post Randy,

What tires do you have now and how many miles have they lasted for you?

[Lubbockguy1979]

The truck currently has the oem bfg at tires. They are not the ko version I think they are ruggerd trail maybe. They are not to the wear bars yet and actually passed inspection a month ago. I've got 96k+ on the truck. Not a great tire off road but they have given me impressive milage. I'd really like something with a more agressive look and better dirt and light mud ability. I would love some mud tires but don't go off the pavement enough to justify it though. I had looked at the michelin, bfg and goodyears based on them likely lasting at least 50-60k

Have you considered the Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac? This model has excellent on-road manors and performs well off-road. This model is considered a hybrid M/T~A/T. Here's the link with more details.

Those looks nice

I might switch to them after these toyos wear out...
(toyos wear quickly..)

What kinda milage would I expect from those? What about road noise?

[Discount Tire]

Even with an aggressive tread design the DuraTrac rides relatively quiet on road. Like any A/T tire though, as the tread wears down the road noise will become progressively noticeable.

With proper maintenance the DuraTrac typically lasts 45K + miles on HD truck applications.

Can you give me a quote on the duratracs with road haz. Mount and balance. Also do you carry the 255/80r 17 bfg km2 in the e rating?

Aren't the duratracs in the 315/70/17 size only D rated tires? And max PSI is 50?
