How scores work
- Relative score
- 0–100. Blends road tests (60%) and owner reviews (40%) category by category, the same way on every TireWheelGuide page. With only one of the two, the missing half is estimated from it, so the score stays closer to average. It needs at least one road test or five owner reviews.
- Road tests
- 0–100 per score, from published tests, newer tests counting more. Each result is compared with every other tire in the same test, so a win against a strong field counts for more. The average tested tire gets 70, the best 100; with only one or two tests a tire stays nearer 70. The discipline rows show % of the best tire in that test.
- Owner reviews
- 0–100 from the owner reviews we found online, adjusted for how generously each site rates and scaled like the road tests: the average tested tire gets 70. With only a few reviews a tire stays near the average.

The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac RT earns overwhelmingly positive reviews from drivers who praise its exceptional off-road traction, rugged styling, and impressive performance in deep snow, mud, and mountain terrain. While a few drivers note a minor drop in fuel economy, slightly firmer ride quality, or typical all-terrain road noise, the vast majority consider it a reliable, long-lasting upgrade over previous iterations and competing models.
Pros
- Outstanding traction in deep snow, ice, and winter weather
- Aggressive and rugged tread design that enhances vehicle appearance
- Surprisingly low road noise for an aggressive all-terrain tire
- Durable sidewalls and strong puncture resistance for off-road and towing use
- Good longevity and treadwear when properly rotated
Cons
- Slightly firmer or harsher ride due to stiff 3-ply sidewalls
- Minor reduction in fuel economy (MPG)
- Noticeable tire hum or noise at certain speeds
- Occasional reports of reduced grip on wet pavement during sharp turns or quick stops
Worth knowing
- Drivers of mid-size trucks like the Chevy Colorado and Nissan Frontier PRO-4X appreciate the rugged off-road capability, though a few noted a stiffer ride on rough surfaces.
- Heavy-duty truck and diesel owners (such as the GMC Duramax and F-250) praise the tire's load-handling capabilities, heavy-duty towing stability, and durability on gravel and mountain roads.
- Owners of vehicles like the Jeep Wrangler 2-door reported that upgrading to these tires notably improved the overall ride profile compared to factory stock.
