Default 2 questions re Duratrac 275/70-18s

1. Anyone running the Duratrac 275/70-18s on stock jeep 18" rims and stock jeep height or with a level kit? Any rubbing issues? Turning? Flexing? Do they measure true?

2. Is $1450 out the door a good deal from a local shop for 5 of them mounted and balanced?

Thanks! Ben

You went 33x12.5R15 on which wheels? How wide were the wheels?

I ran them for over a year with a leveling kit and no problems, until I got the 35" tire bug. I did run them with spacers for stance and clearance, but I test fit them without the spacers, and they will fit without them. If I recall correctly, it think my tires were around $1300 shipped and with mounting and balancing I ended up in the same ballpark as you.
