Message: [QUOTE="dsberman94, post: 1560113, member: 12667"] I used to have a company truck, ‘13 Chevy 2500. Hauling equipment and 100 gallons of fuel all day. I always made sure they put duratracs on my truck any time after July. They lasted easily twice as long as the general grabbers they would put on to save money. The duratracs put on in July would last me through winter, into spring, they’d put a set of grabbers on in spring and I’d wear them out by July or august, back to the duratracs again. The grabbers wear quick with weight, hauling or towing. I might actually suck it up and put them on my f150 in 35s when these tires I have now go bald. Absolutely the best all around tire I’ve had on a truck. A/Ts throw rocks like it’s their job and aren’t good in mud or grass. At least not on a truck with a light rear end and a lot of torque. My current winter tires are mastercraft AXT2 and I won’t get them again, it was just all the tire shop had in the size I needed with a storm coming the next day. Some M/Ts last a while, some don’t, but they’re loud. A good brand m/t definitely will last a while, cheap Chinese ones don’t. And they’re actually pretty good in snow when they’re new. I have ran the MXT on my superduty for winters and they’re good. We put them on my wife’s wrangler in a 12.5 wide and were good for winter for 2 years. We still put them back on in the summer months but put her stockers back on for winter so the wheels don’t get ruined. I’ve also ran the toyo MT in winter in a 305 wide and they were good until about half tread. I do remember my father using the Firestone tires on his superduty and they lasted well. I believe they were an a/t but had big tread blocks and large sipes and weren’t too loud either, at least not over the sound of the engine. [/QUOTE]
