Is the Goodyear Duratrack considered an A/T tire?

I've owned Toyo and Nitto A/T tires on daily drivers. Both seemed fine.

The BFG A/T is an extremely popular tire.

I'd just choose based on mileage warranty and how you want the tire to look on your vehicle.

Duratrac's are supposedly a "hybrid" AT-MT tire. But regardless, they're great tires from what I heard. Jp mag just had an article on them with fantastic results. That, or the Wildpeak AT's are new to the scene and getting good reviews too. I had the BFG AT's on my Blazer and they were great in just about everything I drove in.

All good tires mentioned.....take your pic, and you should be happy

-Ive ran BFG a/t.....great all year round
-Duratracs kick but too, I havent used them myself, but have lots of friends who swear by them
-one buddy has Procomp A/T's, on his Rubi and he loves them...they seem very durable.

The Falken Wild peak A/T look pretty nice, I may take a look at them when it comes time for 37s!

I'm running 35" Nitto Terra Grapplers (295-70-18)- pretty impressed so far. Good tread pattern for off road, but quiet on road. Siping is abundant for wet/icy traction also.
Gas mileage is about 17.5/20.5 (cty/hwy), not too shabby.
Run them in the little bit of snow we have had here, and in the sand - very pleased.
One thing I'd never considered was pointed out to me by the vendor, amount of wheel weights used to balance were minimal. He said that says allot about the manufacturing process - makes sense to me.

My 2 cents

I thought the largest size DuraTracs came in was 34"
