I'm going from 235/70 R16 SRA's to 245/75-16 Duratracs (29" tire to a 30.5" tire). Does anybody who run these or other 245/75's notice a difference in offroad performance with the new tire size? Does 1.5" really make that much of a difference? If so how much, and in what aspects?

While extra height never hurts off road the biggest diffrence will come from actually upgrading the tires. SRAs are pretty terrible on road let alone off. I hear the Duratracks are pretty good too
