Good to hear, thanks for the info! 
Any pics of your rig with those tires on it?

Agreed. I run the 315's in the E load range and love them. I don't think they're stiff at all. Highly recommend these tires.

I don't have Duratracs on the 4runner yet but fwiw I have the 31/10.50/15 "C" on my 89 1/2ton gmc suburban. They ride great on there. I would probably do the "C" on the 4runner when its time for new shoes. Love the tires.

The Duratracs have a nice agressive look but with very good on-road manners and very good hydroplane resistance and good rearend recovery in the snow even in 2wd. They emit average noise levels for an A/T tire but nothing the radio doesn't cover up. Off road they've been very solid and no complaints here either for me.
With the Duratracs I don't feel I sacrificed performance for looks.
I do see their price has risen considerably over the last year (about $35/tire) and pretty much match BFGs price point.

Hey guys, I just got a quote on 265/75/16 from Wal-Mart for $176/tire + $7 lifetime balance + Valvestems + $10 road hazard = $792 + tax = 843.48. But the tread looks different than what I see online + it doesn't have as aggressive side knobs. Could this be an older model possibly?

Looks like you're looking at the Wrangler Authority. I'm hoping some of these rumors of oil prices dropping down a bit are true so the tire pricing will (typically) follow suit. Would love a set of Duratecs as my next set but the price is hard to swallow... coming from a guy used to paying less than $500 for a set of tires all his life anyway. =)

LR C are great for 4runners. That is what I have run for years now. I wheel the snot out of them and they hold up great. I can drive at 75mph+ and they feel solid.

gas prices have fallen 20 cents per gallon here.
To previous poster about different looking tires from walmart...They do sell duratracs but you need to specify. They definitely quoted you the goodyear authority tires.

Bringing this thread back to life...Heres whats up. I have a 2000 with Sonoran Steel 1.2A (which is still for towing and what-not) and a set of terra grapplers. I'm considering the duratracs in a 265/75/16 depending on what input/advice you guys have. I'm not going any bigger cause I need the power for towing and have no desire to re-gear it or anything. It seems like I should go with the D or E load range for the towing, but its already a pretty stiff ride. So when I tow, its usually about 3,000lbs. I don't tow that frequently, but when I do its at least a few hundred miles. So what do you guys think...?

This picture says a lot, but has anyone had any issues with sidewall cuts on the LR C's when offroad? Some of the trails around here have some sharper rocks, and I'm wondering how they would hold up aired down since they are only 2-ply.
Thanks,
Drew
