Waiting for the Great Pumpkin
So as title states, I’m doing tires on a Tundra.
-So-
-BFG KM3’s
-Goodyear Duratrac
Those are my 2 front-runners (have GY MT-R’s on my 80, they are good in all but snow) -exactlly as would be expected of Kevlar MT-R’s.
— I’m not at all worried about the atheists of the carcass, I want tires that wear even here in my colder climate, and are best for traction especially coming out of algae-thick boat ramps (really my worst enemy aside from my driveway with switchbacks / paved with 2”- rocks - not streetcar friendly, esp w/ the boat in tow).
KM3’s - how soft is the rubber?
-If you guys in say AZ /Cali think it’s too soft & you’re seeing treadblock squirm, then that’s the perfect tire for me here.
Goodyear Duratrac -
I see a ton of guys complain the rubber does as above (expected of ‘snowflake rated’ rubber) - but never seen Tundra guys talk of Duratrac tires, just the F(Z)J80 crowd I know best.
_________________________
Aside from those 2, what else do you have worth talking?
-I’m replacing Toyo MT’s that I intentionally never rotated (hate them) - but they do brake well in wet when nearing the 1/4” depth where the rubber gets softer.
But I’d never buy them myself. They are so-so at best IMO.
Suggestions / experiences & miles on yours?
TIA!
