Default Who is running the Duratracs?

Im thinking of getting some duratracs on my new family ride, which a unlimited with rubi rims, and just wondering how they are the trails, is worth the money for them?

Do a search there has been a lot of talk about them. I am going to go with them when my toyos are worn out.

I can't say enough about them. They have done well in everything I've done so far, we'll see how they do in Hot Springs this coming weekend.

I've read through the a large majority of the threads on DuraTracs both here as well as reviews on tire sellers sites. Long story short they seem to be great at many things; trail, street, snow, etc without being a master of any single terrain. That makes them a great tire for those of us who have daily driver/weekend warrior JKs and need something that's smooth and quiet on the pavement, but can handle the workout when the pavement ends or the snow falls. They're on the top of my list for my next set of tires in the fall.

I have them and love them. They are quiet on the road, do very well offroad, and were great this past christmas in the snow up north. All my friends who have seen them in person love the aggressive look.

Best tire I ever used on any of my Jeeps that see DD duty. Only problem I have with them is that they like to follow the ruts on the highway more, but that isn't a big deal. You just get used to it.

Great on my DD. Lots of HW miles, very quite. Only complaint is they float a bit in the slush, but thats to be expected based on the width.
