Default Duratrac on D30

Anyone running the 285/70R17 Duratracs on the stock D30? The weight difference is 5lbs. I also have an Aussie locker.

I know, upgrade to a D44 and get a real locker but I don't have the money for that now.

I am looking to get new tires but don't want to break anything.

So what is your question?

Can you run them without breaking anything? Yes
If you run them, will you break something? Yes



Search on 'c gussets' and 'sleeves', and decide if you need to add anything.
