I am looking at a set of Goodyear Duratrac 315/70/17's and would love to see a side by side height difference against a 35x12.50 (Toyo MT or other). I really like the size of the 35s and would like to know if there is a "noticeable" difference in height. I know what the specs say but was hoping that someone has a pic of a 35 standing against the 315 Duratrac to see if there is much of a visible difference.

Thanks!

See the pics on the AEV forum you can see both duratrac 315 70R17 and wrangler mtr 35 12.50r17

Duratrac seems a bit bigger.

The Dutatracs do look bigger... That's strange. Thanks.

I parked near a jk with BFG KM2 35x12.50R17 at the dealer and the KM2 were about .25'' shorter than my duratrac 315 70r17, both tires set were brand new.

This makes me feel better about the Duratracs! Can't wait to get them.

I can tell the duras are slightly shorter. But i think the tread width is slightly wider. My 12.5 wide toyos measured almost 12.5 wide tread to tread. My 13.5 km2's were just a little over 13 tread to tread. Varies from tread to tread. Duras are a different purpose built tire compared to any mud terrain. Its a wicked all terrain and winter tire.
