Will 325's fit? Opinions on Duratracs?

[GreenMachine]

My 05 is leveled on factory 20's with 305's nitto terra grapplers currently, But im looking to change over to good year duratracs. Do you guys think that 325's will fit, or should i stick with 305's?

I daily drive this thing around 100 miles a day, and it plows snow in the winter. Im trying to find a happy medium between bad azz tire and economical highway/ snow tire.

What do you guys think of the dura tracs and the 325 size?

IDK about the sizes but I like the Duratracs year round and I plow lots of snow with them and no complaints..

I heard they were soft, have you been getting decent mileage out of them? I head up your way often in the winter so they see good amounts of snow, but also tons of highway. I average 30k a year or so.

I got 50K out of the last set..

Counts as good mileage in my book....


Now just to get the size question answered

They are probably the best all around tire I have ever owned.. Great year round traction, good mileage, not loud on the highway and pretty good in the woods as well..

Exactly what i wanted to hear. These Nitto terra mud trails or whatever the heck they are, are insanely loud on the highway and i cannot take another week of them. Dura tracs sound like it will be the perfect balance for me.

Duratrac are great, changed from toyo. I got so far 15k on them and they still look like new.

Good to hear, i have heard horror stories about BFG's and others only lasting 25k, so i want to make sure these bad boys will last some time.

You will love them, I have the 325s on my factory 20s with a 3in leveling kit.

I also have them on my 08 with a 2.5 leveling kit on 20x10 wheels, No rubbing.

Sorry for the lack of a better picture but they work fine leveled on a 22x9.5 wheel with a leveling kit. No rubbing even on bumps.

All those trucks look sick. Thanks for the photos guys I really appreciate it. I need a real camera.

Think I will have issues with the 325's being too wide for stock 20" alcoas?

Here's a photo from tonight with the 305's on it with the leveling kit. Jus ordered a adjustable trac bar and caster shims along with dual steering bilstein 5100 stabilizer. Hopefully some new shoes and she will be all tied up suspension wise.

In case it matters to anyone, I think the 325's are only load range D- rated tires.

The duratracs that I have delt with personally are a very good well-rounded tire but make sure that you keep up with your rotation and air pressures they do have a tendency to cup if not rotated periodically and run at matching inflation pressures.

Mine are 10 ply, These seem to wear pretty well on the narrow wheels. The bfgs and nitto terra grapplers wear bad on narrow wheels though.

you may want to look at fierce attitudes they are close to duratracs and made by goodyear and cost less $

I cant seem to find them in a 20" rim.




Can you guys get the duratracs with whitewall letters? would you?

 

[bluedevilslax]

You can get the duratracs in a white wall. I know discount tire offers them.

 

[Ia PWRSTKE]

You cant get em white letter in a 20. And the fierce only goes up to an 18.

 

[GreenMachine]

I cannot decide to pull the trigger. Do you guys think the truck will look stupid with smaller tires?

This is how it looks right now with the leveling kit and 305's. It seems like it needs bigger meats.

$439 a tire is killing me.
