The :princess: took the LX to the tire shop this morning and sent these after pics :)

Looks like it will be ok on the road!

Just need someone to buy the 40 so I can finish this one up and make a couple of rides this year. Pretty sure my schedule is open for the SCC.

I think I may just go with a 2.5" OME Heavy lift ~ $875 or so. I guess I would have to lower the bumpstops, and it wouldn't flex as well as a 4" from Slee or FOR, but at 1/3 the price it looks good to me.
 
yes i have the same ones, sitting waiting for me to get back, i am anxious, mine will be paired with 2.5 lift also, medium though
 
I really like those tires...

I am going with the same size, but I'm hung up between these and the Nitto Terragrapplers with the Wildcard being the Kumho Road Venture MT's (have read some not so good things about the Kumho's though...)
Wish I could afford the MT-Rs with Kevlar but at basically 3 bills per corner...I don't think thats gonna happen.

Tire Rack has the Duratrac listed at $216
 
Congrats on the Duratracs so far I have limited mine to road usage but word is they handle their own offroad as well.
 
Nice same tires I am getting for mine and same size. Any rubbing around town that you've noticed? I was trying to see if I could slap the tires on before the lift which would be coming in a couple months anyway.
 
Looks great.
Can you tell me if you rub, how much clearance you have before rubbing?
I need to know for my Ultimate Bracket what to space it so a 315 will not rub. Especially going straight down the road and hitting a bump.

Thanks
Rami
 
Did your :princess: pick out those tires? If so you've got a winner!

Looks good!
 
Naw, she didn't pick em out, but she is a winner!

I haven't had a chance to drive it yet. I asked her if she noticed any strange noises when she drove it home, but she didn't hear or feel anything strange.
 
Nice. I like those tires. You gonna regear?

It's pretty flat in Louisiana so I may be ok with stock gears for now. Eventually I'll go to 4.88.
 
Are you using any wheel spacers right now? Just curious about how far the 315 Duratrac sit out on a stock rim with no spacer. Are they almost flush with the LX flares? I am ordering these this week, just waiting for my LC wheels. I sure would like to ditch my spacers!!
 
No wheel spacers.
 
are they flush with the flares??
