Where the heck did you find MTRs cheaper than Duratracs? Every place I see them, the MTRs are more.

I just bought Kelly Safaris 35" , they are made by Goodyear and almost the same tread pattern as duratracts , I paid $ 250 a tire at Tire Warehouse

Just FYI on the Duratracs I have 51,000 on my Duratracs and still going strong! My son has them on his 95 YJ and he is able to pull diesel trucks out of the mud, he has no winch.. I really like these tires!

I have two jeeps and two sets of duratracs. I like them and think they are a great value. Additionally great for dd and weekend play.

Duratracs gets my vote. Granted, I have nothing to compare to other than the stock duelers yet these being my second set of duratracs I have no reason to try any other tire out there because they have always performed beyond my expectations.

I have had the Duratracs, Attitudes, and Kelly TSR's. All are light tires for their size, and all performed well for me. When I need to replace my tires it will definitely be one of the three. I don't think you can go wrong with any of these three choices.
