I don't have them but I know a few folks who do. Jerry the owner of B.A.M.F runs those tires on his tacoma and likes them. He wheels relativity hard too so if he approves of them, I would say they are good tires. I considered getting some too but I can get BFG KM2's for alot cheaper.

The cheapest I've found is through discount tires, set of 4 for 1,055 installed. I like that they're aggressive and still an AT. Dont know much about them though.

I have them on my Tacoma and they do have a bit of a hum at speed but not as bad as a full on MT. They ride smooth and have pretty good traction in most situations where I've used them. I got them for their snow rating as I was hoping to go to the snow alot this last winter.

The duratracs are great tires. They have good traction and low road noise. Basically a
M/T looking tire with characteristics of a A/T tire. Are you looking for 265s or 285s? I've had both, just went from the 265s to 285s. If you are in the south bay area, my friend works at Goodyear and can get you them for a little bit above cost. I think a set of 5 265/75/16s ran me 900 and the 285s were 1100 installed with lifetime balancing and rotations.

Wow, thats a heck of a deal! I'm in Monterey, but that's worth making the drive. I am definitely interested in getting a set of 5. First I need to see how much I'm able to get for my current BF goodrich AT's though.

Do you think the 285/75/16 will fit the 16" TRD wheels? I sure hope so.
