I run my Duratracs year-round. You'll be fine running them through the summer. We only have 4 snow-free months up here so no problem.

Have the Duratracs on a 2012 daily driver. They're great on and off the road and they're QUIET!

They call them 35's but they actually measure 34" with the weight if a JKU sitting on them.
