Here's a helpful review of Duratracs: http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=46727 I bet you could find what you need in the Tires/Tyres/Meats section (scroll way down past the CRD section and you'll find it). |

As choochooman said, a 5 tire rotation is the best route. You should get 20% more mileage out of the set so in the end it will pay for itself. And, if you destroy one, you still have a matched set and save a LOT of money. Still, as long as you don't have the limited slip in the rear or are not using 4wd, using a slightly different sized size spare is not a problem for the short term. IMO the 245/70/R16 is a great choice for stock suspension. I noticed the improvement in traction and stability with mine. Some tires will rub slightly little at the extremes of turning or flex. |
