Description: Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac


The Wrangler DuraTrac has Goodyear's TractiveGroove Technology that provides enhanced traction in deep mud and snow while the tire's combination of highly angled center tread blocks and zig-zag microgrooves offers enhanced lateral stability and traction in rain and snow, all while reducing road noise.


Self-cleaning, stepped shoulder blocks and thousands of biting edges help the tire deliver enhanced off-road traction and handling, as well as snow traction worthy of the Rubber Manufacturers Association's Mountain Snowflake Symbol, a designation for winter traction.


To provide even more performance in harsh winter driving conditions, the Wrangler DuraTrac can be equipped with metal studs.


To enhance the toughness and longevity of the tire, the new DuraTrac features a rugged tread rubber that helps resist tread block chipping, chunking and tearing, especially during heavy loading and towing applications. Wrangler DuraTrac also features a rim lock that helps prevent wheel slip for minimal balancing throughout the life of the tire.


Digs Deep With TractiveGroove Technology(TM)


The new Wrangler DuraTrac features TractiveGroove Technology to help get the job done. Offering enhanced traction in deep mud and snow, the Wrangler DuraTrac is a hardworking tire for drivers who don't know the meaning of the word quit.


Benefits and Features


TractiveGroove Technology(TM) - Offers enhanced traction in deep mud and snow


Self-cleaning shoulder blocks - Help provide enhanced dirt, gravel and mud traction


Highly angled center tread blocks - Help provide enhanced traction and lateral stability while reducing road noise


Rim protector - Helps protect wheels from accidental curb damage


Pinned for #16 metal studs - Enhanced traction in winter driving conditions

Pros: Great Snow Traction, Quiet, Great Wet Tracktion
Cons: Price

Put these on my 05 Chevy Colorado in a 265/75R16 and have put on 2K miles. These things are amazing in the snow and on wet roads. I can't wait to try them out in the mud. If you havn't purchased these yet, go get them today.

Pros: excellent tread, aggressive look
Cons: expensive ( but worth it )

I put 35"s on my lifted 97 Sierra. I dont do much hiway driving but what I have done they are good. No problem going from pavement to trails. Driving the streets in the winter before the plows get to them are no problem either. Definately will be getting another set when these are worn.

Pros: Looks awesome, quiet for an M/T, serious all terrain traction
Cons: Price can be high, backordered a lot

I bought these as a replacement to 33" Hankook ATM RF 10's. I really liked the Hankooks, but I wanted to step up to 35's on my JK. I can say that these have excellent road manners for such an aggressive tread. They are exceptionally quiet and roll very smooth. Offroad these babies are tits-money! Try them and see.... you will not be disappointed!

Pros: too many
Cons: not enough

To all the guys who are giving these a poor rating and driving around in 10000lbs rigs...... what do you expect?!? Any "E" rated tire has strong side walls but seriously guys, look at the weight and check the load rating. Try putting bicycle tires on a motorcycle and see how that works out. These tires rock, 10+.

Pros: Traction in snow, mud and dirt
Cons: none so far

I am a BFG fan because they make great tires but when something comes highly recommended I am not afraid to check them out. When looking to replace my awful Nitto Terra grapplers, which I bought on a gamble and lost, I rolled the dice again on another tire not of the BFG brand.
I was so disappointed with the Nitto's I was kicking myself for not just buying some BFG AT's, and I had a fear that it would be the same this time around. But No! These tires are FANTASTIC!!
A tad noisier than the Nitto's but the traction they offer is so much better, who could complain?

Pros: On, and off road traction, wet, ice, and snow.
Cons: Load range "E" too much for my '05 Rubicon Unlimited TJ (LJ)

2005 Jeep Rubicon Unlimited. Tire size is 285/75-16, load range "E", 3 ply sidewall, 10 ply tires. This was the only option available for the factory 16 x 8 MOAB rims in a 33" tire size. The ride is comparible to the stock 245/75-16 Goodyear Wrangler MTR that they replaced, minus the noise. They are very firm at 28-30 PSI where I get the best contact patch on pavement. This is well below the suggested pressure from Goodyear. The comparison ends in any wet or winter traction, the MTR was a horrible tire on my Jeep for those situations, the Duratrac is fantastic. Possibly because of the 3 ply sidewall on this particular size, and possibly because the TJ Unlimited is a very light vehicle for an E rated tire, I've had no sidewall troubles in any rocks, roots, or other hazzards where I've taken it. I am not an "Extreme" offroader, but often take snowmobile & ATV trails, even animal paths to get to the various camping, hunting, and fishing spots I like to go to. While not a true mud tire, they do much better than the previous BFG AT and about equal to the MT in MOST kinds of mud, but not all. These should be considered an AT++ Crossover tire in offroad terms, or an ideal daily driver / weekend warrior tire. I haven't had to use my winch once since getting them (though it's been close). On road, these tires are great in dry, wet, icy, snowy, and any condition in between. Very smooth running, minimal balancing required, and are wearing far slower than I would have expected, the rubber feels very soft, yet isn't wearing as such. Tires are quiet too. My first set were stolen off my Jeep, and I replaced them with a second set without hesitation. Great tire.

Pros: On, and off-road traction, as well as soft sand.
Cons: 265/70 R16 for 90 series Prado not available

I wanted an aggressive tyre that wasn't an all-out mud terrain due to the rate at which the tread on muddies can wear down. And this tyre was the perfect choice. I live in Australia and here these tyres are in huge demand. The Beaurepairs store I bought them from ($320 ea) sells 40 sets a month, and if the tyres are staked, they're covered with a warranty for the life of the tyre until the tread depth isn't legal anymore. All you have to do is pay the % difference for a new replacement depending on the % of tread left. They're fairly quiet on road, grip very well in the wet for an aggressive type of tyre, and I've had no probs with them off-road. They don't dig into soft sand either like a muddy does. I've had the tyres for 20,000km now and they still look fairly new. I thought they would've worn down quicker, but have surprised me. I'm yet to personally find a better tyre for equal or better value. All my freinds love the aggressive lug and sidewall pattern. A very cool looking tyre.

Pros: very aggressive a/t for the money and DD
Cons: none so far

when i was in the process of lifting my jeep yj i was shopping for the best aggressive tire for the money that had good wear for a DD. when i found out these were a A/T(thought they were M/Ts at 1st) and priced around i bought them 33x12.50 r15 for 836.96 set of 4 mounted and balanced. i got them mounted on 15x10 dwindow steelies w/3.75 bs and they made the jeep look beastly. they also were considerably light at 48lbs a tire. now for the best part testing them offroad: we just recieved heavy rain in MS and flooded the backroads and made mudholes very soggy. the tires managed to pull my jeep through some deep stuff in 2wd and even through a small ditch! they clean out very great. i spend most time on road and have about 700miles on them and lift. they do hum not very loud but good enough to remind you this is a aggressive tire. i was so hooked on them i recommended them to a friend who also has a yj when he was shopping for new tires. he was going to get bfg a/ts but got the duratracs and likes them too. when these wear out im leaning back to these tires again.

Pros: great tire!! excellent traction in mud and sand.
Cons: tread is to soft.

I put a set of 33/12.50/15 on my truck that is a 1995 chevy K1500. I have been complimanted on how the tire looks several of times. For the off roading part i have been up to the bottom of my door in mud(18in) and still not stuck they have incredible traction for an alterain tire. THe only thing is that it seems the tread is wearing a little quick; i have about ten thousand miles on them with a tad bit more than half tread. It could be caused by the summer heat. Overall i would recommend these tires to anyone that off roads frequently.

Pros: Does well in sun, rain, snow, ice and anything else in between
Cons: hard time getting it balanced

Great tire overall. Coming from cars, all season tires are known as all fail tires since they suck in the winter and suck in the summer. These tires, however, for trucks are truly all terrain from snow, ice to sand, mud and rain. Had 12 inches of snow a week here in Jersey this winter... NOT a problem even up the hill on my street where even some 4x4's got stuck. Been a rainy April and the sipping prevented any form of hydroplaning. Dry pavement, it has a hum that you really really have to focus on all the sounds around you to pinpoint. On wet grass, my buddy's truck would slip all over the place on BFG T/A KO's. These tires did none of that, a quick blip on the throttle and I'm off and running.
I can't say enough about these tires; they truly shine on all sorts of terrain. I am having a problem getting them balanced but it could be my rims; going to have the remounted on another set of rims and find out.

Pros: Great at everything.
Cons: None so far

Depending on where you live, if you close to a Discount Tire dealer. Their prices are great, but better than anything, they are the only place I know that carries a lifetime free replcement on the tires instead of prorating them out. That means eveytime you get a punctured tire, you get a brand new tire. Orange tree thorns won't bother you when you have a new set of tires all them time. Just my $.02

Pros: Excellent all around traction, great look
Cons: Not for hard core off roading, but what do you expect?

I have had these tires on my 2000 TJ for 6 months. I love them! I wore out two sets of Pro Comp Mud Terrains and decided to try these. The Pro Comps will hold up better on rocks and will resist side wall punctures much better, but I am an occasional off roader and this tire is just right for me. Unreal traction on snowy roads. Just enough hum that you know they are there. I have 31's and they look like 33's if mounted black wall out. I get compliments and questions about them when I am out. Smooth ride. So far they work very well on woods roads and the occasional mud hole. When I wear these out I'll go back for more.

Pros: great all around tire works well in snow/ice and mud.
Cons: not much

I have them on my 2006 F350 Power stroke and i got approximately 56000 mile on them then had to replace. Rotated them every 7000 miles faithfully.
