Tow Vehicle got new shoes today

Well after 2 plus years of hating my tires (Dick Cepek Fun Country FUN COUNTRY | DICK CEPEK TIRES AND WHEELS) I decided to make the switch to the Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac (https://www.goodyear.com/en-US/tires/wrangler-duratrac). In the last 2 years I have had my Fun Country tires in the tire shop 5 times in an attempt to get them balanced.

Today I finally had enough and made the switch. I am excited to see if the Duratrac live up to the hype that all of the oil and gas guys around here are touting. Time will tell I guess. I got the load rated "E" tires that are a 10 ply and a much stronger tire than the "C" rated light truck tire which are only a 6 ply.

Thats a good thing. Since according to your signature your truck is a 2500 (3/4 ton), factory recommended tires are load range E tires anyway.
