I am in the market for some new tires. Does anyone have these? I cannot find many reviews. How do these perform on the road and in wet conditions?

I found plenty of reviews for these tire before I bought them.

There are multiple threads on this forum about them too.

I am really impressed with their road manners. Very quite and smooth for an aggresive looking tread. Wet performance is more than acceptable for an A/T tread. Haven't done a great deal of offroading with them yet but have noticed they get stones stuck in the tread more than I'm used to.
 
Just got mine Saturday and so far so good but am anxiously awaiting for some bad/snowy weather. They seem to sit taller than my Nittos but then again my Nittos were a bit worn.

I'm going to get pics side by side with my mom's '99 Limited shod with the stock size Yok Geolandar AT/S shortly.
 
I've put on over 15,000 miles on a set and they have been great for off roading. Plus there are pretty quit on the road so all around pleased so far!!

I see you went 265/75/16. Do you have any rubbing issues? Are you at stock hight?

Bringing this thread back from the dead.. Ron can you say anything on a comparison between the duratracs and the geolander at/s's??
 
My mom has the Yoks on her '99 Limited and the Geos ride a little smoother and quieter but I expected that but their wet/snow handling is quite similar. Off road I expect the grip on the trails would go to the Goodyears but I can't say first hand since my mom won't be letting me trail her Runner for a tire comparison.

Ok thank you, I had the Geolanders on my 2nd gen., they were amazing in the snow/ icy roads, and also very solid on the trails. I love the look of the Duratracs, and it's good to know they perform well in the winter too. Decisions, decisions.
