Duratrac or mtr kevlars

[1992explorerMi]

35x12.5x15 cant decide on tires. I currently have the mtr kevlars on my other explorer and i love them off road but wasnt extreamly impressed last winter. I live in michigan.

Duratracs are an excellent tire in the snow. I have had them for two MD winters and they have performed extremely well. There can be 8 inches of snow and I'll keep it in 2wd problem free. Quick check on Goodyear's website, the Duratrac doesn't come in a 35x12.5R15. Biggest size they offer on a 15" rim is 33X12.5R15. Hope that helps.

I am buying rims at the same time so thats not a issue. How are they with shedding mud the mtr i have are amazing in that aspect but they are to hard of rubber to grab in cold climate

With a little wheel speed they shed mud pretty good, but are definitely inferior in mud to the MTR's. But they're far superior to the MTR's is cold and winter conditions. I love mine and wouldn't hesitate to grab them.

I was looking into the coopers last night but i dont think i can leave goodyear. They are actually alot cheaper for me because i get a 100 mail in rebate for each tire

x2 on Coopers. They make a fantastic tire and are often over-looked and under-rated. Made in USA and they may not look special but their compounds make a difference.

Discount Tire Direct on eBay has $100 off $400 with an additional $70 mail in rebate for Coopers (as well as others). It's good until the 15th:

I got in on a similar deal last year, $50 off on top of Black Friday prices. Even though prices are a bit higher, this is actually one of the better deals I've seen.

I had Duratrac on my Blazer and a 2 wheel drive truck and LOVED them. They were Awesome in the snow and in the rocks. Never really had a chance in the mud though. If I could I would really go back to them again. Great tire.

I had the duratracs on my old 2wd explorer and absolutly loved them. Awsome traction, but the side walls are alittle soft in my opinion.
