Time to replace the GY Wrangler All-Terrain Kevlar

It's finally time to replace my GY Wrangler's with Kevlar that have almost 40K on them, all of them with the TC on them with a full 14K load.

I think they have been an outstanding highway tire, I've hit many a serious pothole crossing the US and never had any tire issues.

I am not looking for an even more aggressive off-road tread pattern.

Along those lines I have narrowed it down to TWO tires:

Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac
Duratrac

and the Yokohama Geolandar M/T G003
Yokohama Geolander

There is a lot of data on the Duratrac's as they have been around for awhile and they do have the snowflake symbol for added snow traction ability.
The Geolandar's on the other hand only came out last year so there is no long term data as of yet.

It's a long shot, but anyone have the Geolandar MT G003's on their rig?
  • I do like the looks of the Yokahama's. I to have a diesel. Had a 12 valve for 17 years, much louder than the '04 I now have. Neither have I had issues with tire noise.

    As you are aware, but others may not be, the Goodyear® Wrangler® All-Terrain Adventure tread is not as aggressive as the Yokahama Geolander M/T G003.
