So, it's getting close to winter and I'm starting to shop for new treads for my Super Duty. My requirements: Good snow traction, load range E (I tow frequently), 35" diameter for 16" rim (I don't want to drop tire size or buy new rims) and reasonable price. I know that this narrows my options considerably, but it is what it is. I currently have Hankook mud terrains on the truck and hate them. They tow excellent (load range E), but they are too loud for a non-aggressive mud tire, and I've never been able to get them to balance right. Plus they are not an optimum design for snow traction.
So far I think the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac look like the leading candidate. I've never been a Goodyear fan, but they fit all of my specification well, so I may give them a shot. Anyone else with experience with the Duratracs in the snow? How loud are they on the road? Any trouble getting them to balance?
I'm open to other suggestions, just looks like the Goodyears are the frontrunner right now. They are rated very high for snow traction (10 out of 10 on Goodyear's site).
Any thoughts? Here is a picture of the truck for reference (and just because I know how everyone likes pictures ;D).
