I caught that too, but it sounds like the 31's and 33's run smaller than what the site calls for.

i'm sure it depends on the rim width too.. probably a little taller on a 7" rim then a 9" rim so factor that in too.

Don't worry about them running small. They're not that small.

I am running 33" duratracs on my DD/wheeler. I can say it is probably the best road tire I have ever bought but if you are planning on ever wheeling rocks I would advise going a different route. I've blown out 3 sidewalls in about 1 1/2 years with mild wheeling. Their 2 ply sidewall is just too weak.

Thanks for the experience! I don't see many rocks here in Michigan, so I'm not too worried about it. I actually just ordered a set of four Duratracs for $688 last night. Discount Tire Direct (Ebay Store) has a $100 off code, free shipping, and no tax for orders over $400. Jeepology mentioned it in his build thread, and after some ignorant questions on my end, I placed the order.

If anyone is in the market, the deal is going on until the 31st. You can find it here... http://stores.ebay.com/Discount-Tire-Direct scroll down a little and sort by brand/size.

By the way, I'm am not at all affiliated with DTD. I'm just passing along a good deal that someone passed to me.

EDIT: You can place multiple orders for $400 and use the $100 off each time.

Yeah, when I priced my tires out 2 years ago the cheapest I could find them for was $800!

Great deal
