I put these 35x12.5x15's on my '91 Hilux in 2005, 30,000 miles (cross the US, then drive from NC to CT a few times along with going to work the miles add up quickly) still on my rig today with 20-20% tread remaining. They've lasted far better than the BFG MT's and Goodyear Wrangler MT's that preceeded them. Here's my terrain scores:


Dry road: 9/10 they will wear faster than a road tire, and they tend to cup a little as they wear down, but that's goint to happen to ANY MT tire.


Rocky Terrain: 10/10 they air down to 10psi great, sidewall protection is awesome, side lugs hold great.


Mud: 9/10 yes they will clog up in really bad clay, but for anywhere else they are great, and can hold their own against TSL and Boggers.


Wet/snow/ice: 9/10 First of all if you drive on wet/snow/ice and expect your tires to react the same as dry road... you're an idiot! The wider the tire the more apt you are to hydroplane or slide because your vehicle's weight is spread over a larger surface area under the tire.


You want a great rain tire, get an AT or regular road tire with added siping and stay ON the road. You want a snow/ice tire, either stud the MT's (where legal), buy chains (where I'm from in WA they're REQUIRED to access certian winter roads), OR for the best winter tires on a large truck... Go buy a set TOYO M/S tires (my winter tires), they are made of a softer compound. As they get below freezing, they stay 'softer' (and hence flex and grip the surface better) than a regular tire which would get stiff and slide more. They can also be studded, and they have good abrasion resistance against chains. REMEMBER, they are WINTER tires: since they are made of such a soft compund, when driving on hot days on dry pavement, you can almost see the tires wearing down.


For all around driving: road, mud, rocks, bad weather, ProComps are the best all around I've ever driven on, and they're some of the better priced on top! I recommend them to everyone!

After seeing this place online, it looked wonderful so I took the 2 and half hour ride. Did not know the trails were still covered in snow. And got stuck all day. The people in the office would not help, they were rude and not helpful at all. May be a nice place to go in the summer, but after today I will never go back.

Gateway-Buckshot-Mudders-Bias-Ply.jpg

Views: 673542

by far the best tires ever made for offroading !! THIS IS NO BULLSHIT.. I bought 5 new 33x12.5 gateway mudders in 1976 for my toyota landcruiser when i bought it off the lot new, 163,000 miles later they are still holding air and have about a half inch of tread left. THATS 34 YEARS of road and trails !!!! i have boggers on my new mud truck (1978 landcruiser), and they do out perform the gateways for going ahead, but boggers WILL NOT back you out of a mudhole like the gateways will !!! I SWEAR THAT THE OLD MONSTER MUDDERS ARE AND WILL BE THE GREATEST MUD TIRE EVER MADE !!

I've seen the walls of my combustion chambers after using this product for an extended period, and there were ZERO carbon deposits. Good engine computers can tell... and then engines perform at their optimum...

I searched and debated this for 4 months. Do I buy them, Don't I buy them?? Well I did and they are truely unbelievable!! I have them on my GMC 1500 and I live in NJ. We just had record snow falls, 50+ inches in one month and these Dura Trac's were great!!! I was out this afternoon trail riding with another Chevy 1500 with BFG All-terrain and a GMC Canyon. The Canyon got stuck, the Silverado with the BFG's got stuck trying to pull the Canyon out. Guess which truck had the traction to pull everybody out??? I spent 95% of the day in 2 wheel drive just to test the traction and never got stuck!!! I've had them on for 2000 miles or so and they're very quiet on the road for such an aggressive tire. I'm definatley goig with these again only next time maybe a little bigger...
