Default My tires are finally on!
Here we go....after almost a year I finally got my 315 70/17 Duratracs on my '13. The first one is off the floor 11 months ago, and the others are what it looks like now

Very nice. Night and day difference in the stance and look. Mine are somewhere in between my garage and Discount Tires warehouse. Same tires on Level 8 Strike 5's. I love the blacked out look. Enjoy.

Default tires
anyone else feel like these tires have no grip in the rain?

I have them on my JK also, and in rain they seem to be letting me down...

No, mine are great in the rain. My old tire was the 285, and never had any issues with the Duratrac

Looks great! That is the exact lift and tires that I want on mine... Hopefully by April... BTW, How are you liking your Smittybuilt Rockrails?

The rails are good for the wife and kids to use as steps, and because they were cheap I don't mind beating the crap out of them

Only on a few particular corners they seem to slip but I think it's just bad road conditions not the tires. I love my Duratracs
