The 265/70r17  Ford with Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac are used in work trucks, and plow trucks are especially popular in the former. Everybody wears these things because they are quite impressive both off-road and on-road.

You can see they have those big chunky blocks of the tread on the side and then in the middle, it’s a little closer and it’s a smaller block of the tread. But there is still a lot of space there for the evacuation of not only water, but also gravel, mud rocks, etc. And by having them closer together in the center, you get a little more mileage out of these. So, depending on the sizes, they have a fifty-thousand-mile warranty. So that’s something you’ll want to investigate.

When it comes to driving in the snow, we can tell you first hand that these things are pretty impressive, just in the tread pattern alone, you will see that there are a ton of zigzag snipers. And basically, what it does is it collects snow and locks it in those little sections so you don’t turn it into a stain, but you get better acceleration and better braking by having all this extra writing there.

So, if you are looking for a tire with an off-road appearance and good performance both on the road and in difficult terrain such as snow, we recommend the Wrangler Duratrac.

– For off-road capability, the Trail Blade® M/T has an extra deep tread.

This tire has legendary reputation in the off-road community. BFG practically invented the first radial off-road  or all-terrain tire over 40 years ago. The 265/70r17 Ford BF Goodrich All-Terrain T/A KO2 is the next generation or brother of the original KO tire, which alone, was a rock star in the category.

So to make this tire tougher overall, BFG just basically fortified some of the big weak spots, more specifically the sidewalls and shoulder area, which is where over 80% all terrains tire failures occur. All this features in the 225/65r17 bf goodrich.

To do so, they beefed up that shoulder area using that is called their CoreGuard technology, making this tire 15% to 20% stronger than the original KO tire, helping to prevent punctures and thinks like that. BFG KO2 245/75r17

First of all, you may notice in this model that the 265/70r17 Ford Falken Wildpeak A/T3 have this sort of angled side biter that looks somewhat like a saw blade. It’s sort of directional how it’s angled up, but you do have that a little bit of extra traction there with those side biters.

They do have those cooling fins along this inner bead of the tire there, which always makes people kind of question why are they there? If you are running low air pressure, for example, then Falken put these on there to help dissipate the heat, but you don’t see that on any other tire out there.

The other thing is that those shoulder blocks are designed a little bit different. They still have the larger shoulder blocks on the outer edge of the tire and then the scattered or staggered inner tread blocks along the center of the tire to help cut down on that road noise.

5.- General Grabber AT on Ford Ranger – 265/70R17

The ATX, which the X, means that it’s designated from General Tire as a hybrid or crossover tire and was designed to be a blend of General X three mud terrain with a more robust sidewall and aggressive shoulder lugs and General previous AT2 all-terrain to give it a respectable on road handling and a quiet ride, plus lots of great traction characteristics without sacrificing Off-Road performance.

The tread voids and tread depth will do a great job at evaluating mud as long as you have them spinning at a faster rate of speed. Same with the snow, especially the wet, heavy stuff.

Not surprisingly, the 265/70r17 Ford General Grabber A/TX is ample space between the lugs, as these are rated as a three peak mountain snowflake rated tire, which means they have passed a set standard as being a high performing tire in severe winter weather driving conditions.

The alternating shoulder scoops allow a more wide and open area for additional grip on the rocks and for more hardcore wheeling situations.

General Tire offers there ATX in 40 different sizes, with one of them being a 14-inch wheel size and the rest from 15 inch to 20-inch wheels sizes.

We will tell you why the Grappler model is so popular. For starters, it combines the best of both worlds, between its  mud tires and its off-road tires.

Now, the Ridge Grappler itself is actually built on an all-terrain platform, whereas you have other ultra or hybrid tires, it is built on the mud tire platform, so the 265/70r17 Nitto Ridge Grappler is kind of giving you the best of both worlds between that mud and the all-terrain.

You could get good on road performance, they’re not too loud. But then if you want to take this thing off road on the weekends, you can definitely do that.

No complaints with them. Good in the dry, good in the wet and actually pretty decent in the snow, too, because it’s again just the hybrid tire that’s good for a little bit of everything.

Another added bonus of these tires is that they’re actually manufactured right here in the United States and actually you could get a chance to tour the factory in white Georgia. So, it’s one of those tires that it’s American made.
