    I've had Duratrac's on my last three trucks, current truck came with them. As far as traction in mud AND snow, they're really good. They just wear down to fast. I think I'm going to try something else when they need to be replaced.

    I also have aggressive AT tread and it picks up rocks from my driveway. It's annoying as hell. It shredded my shock boots also.

    I recently got Kelly Safari AT’s and they don’t pick up the 1” rock in my driveway, but I was on a driveway with smaller rocks and they picked up a bunch of rock. Never thought they were going to release. I took em on there first interstate trip over the weekend and was pleased with the ride quality. Bumps and holes feel a little harsher on secondaries.

    Try the Falken Wildpeak AT4W. Very quiet, ride great and very good in snow/rain. I previously had Duratracs and liked them but they are much louder than the Falkens.

    I have Summit Trail Climber ATO2's on my F250 work truck...they pick up rocks like nothing I've ever seen! They give the truck a bit of a wishy washy "unsettled feel" going down the road too...I guess I would probably tend to not get these again...of course of the 3 models that I had quoted, they were not my first pick, but the boss went with the "budget option"

    I have these on my F-150. Got them this summer. Very quiet. I'm looking forward to seeing how they do in snow.

    I've had them on my Grand Cherokee for the last several years. Iirr, theres over 70k on em. If I was in a snowy climate they would get changed now vs in the spring.

    I have Falken Wildpeak RT's...They seem to be wearing pretty well but are getting a little loud. 40-50K on them so far. I would do again, although they were not easy on thew wallet IMO
