I have a set of Goodyear Duratrac 31x10.5x15 that are half life and becoming very loud. I plan to sell these while I can still get some $$ for them. What is a good AT tire that is QUIET yet performs well for light trails. Hankook Dynapro ATM?


Thank you and sorry if I put this in the wrong spot.

Here is P265/75/15 equals 31 x 10.5 flotation tire (actual diameter of both is 30.4" to 30.6")

Plus they are rated for 55k miles, keep them rotated and inflated and they last for a long time, my dad runs them on his dd and has yet to get stuck with them, going in and out of some pretty nasty muddy job sites

When I was younger I wish that I could have found a place that bought "Used Rubbers" only used once.

I'm running a set of General Grabber AT2's. So far they have been great, we got several snow storms in a row right after I got them and they were unstoppable. I have yet to do any real wheeling so I can't speak for their off road performance much (other than fire and farm roads, which they have worked well on). Friend of mine said he kept his rotated on his Cherokee and they ran 80k miles, my brother has them on his f150 and likes them as well. Not loud at all on the freeway, plus they didn't break the bank

destination AT. Great tire hands down. Served me through hurricanes, flooded roads, slushy winter storms, heavy winter storms, offroading (fire trails and watery mud) and they are tough as hell.

I love my duratracs but General AT2s are my next tire. Just about true to size, light, and all the great benefits plus better seeping than BF T/As

I've heard the the GY silent armor tires are super quiet but perfect for some forest trails.
