Goodyear Duratrac Wranglers

I bought a set of GY Duratrac Wranglers after nearly wrecking my truck with the BFG Rugged Trails on some packed snowy roads. The Duratracs are simply amazing! They react well on the the highway, in snow, and they are beasts off road! I would very highly recommend these tires to ANYONE who is in the market for some new rubber! The only con with this tires is that they are quite noisy on the highway. As for fuel mileage, I haven't noticed any major change.

A friend of ours just got some for his Frontier. Aaron and I are thinking about upgrading to those on the 2nd gen in 35's after our BFG All Terrains run out.

Thinking on those also for the wifes Frontier. Will 35's fit without a body mound chop and a lift. The wifes is stock.

^I don't recommend it at all. You need at least 3" suspension lift, but I honestly would also get a 2" BL on top of that.

They're killer tires, 18 mm of tread too so the extra cost of them really is worth it... they demolish absolutely everythign except really slippy roads in my experience, but at the end of the day I'll give them mad respect, I've tried to get my truck stuck with these in mig snow piles and drifts with NO results, just keeps on plowing through

How does the truck handle? I've heard other reviews of their vehicle feeling like its "floating" or bouncy. I guess cause of the weak 2 ply sidewall or something.

Yes, they rock.
After I set the pressure to 37 front 35 rear, they are fine. Or I just got used to them.
I don't think they are that loud.
If you purchase a set, you will not regret doing so.
Remember: this is a truck not a razor sharp sports car. I have to keep telling myself that.
