Got bald in 25,000 miles of rough roads trying to keep up with 5.slows. Get some softer tires with tread on there!

The truck rolled over to 209,000 last weekend and I've put 21,000 miles on in the last 9 months.

Chris...how are your Duratracs holding up so far? They may be my next set of tires...looking at the 285x60x20's but they're close to $400 buck's apiece!

Don't know how much truth this holds, but I've heard they don't up hold so well to continuous highway driving in really hot climates because of their softer compound.

I don't see too many on any truck's down here....mostly Toyo...BFG or Nitto's. I like the look's and the light weight of them. Gonna be awhile before I replace the factory Bridgestones...only have 1,500 miles on them now!

They're holding up really well, from what I can see at least. I've got a little over 10k miles on them so far. I can get an actual tread depth tomorrow for you.
