Close call. I think overall the Duratracs are a sweet tire, and better in the snow. Upsizing from 265/65/18 to 275/65/18 I saw about 1-2 mpg loss. In retrospect, the 265/65/18 was a better tire size for city and highway driving. The 275 is a good compromise though for offroading and highway. I'm thinking 285 will be too large given further loss in mpg given this is a daily driver.

Ultimatley, I'd like to fit 275/70/18 duratracs on here, but the list of potential issues is long and expensive to fix. 275/65 again seems like a good compromise.
