Goodyear tires perform efficiently on asphalt, unpaved, crushed stone, or gravel roads, as well as in rocky, sandy, or moderate dirt terrain. In addition to high cross-country ability, rubber is also distinguished by high reliability, comfort, and long service life.
The Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac off-road tire is suitable for those who enjoy tough off-road conditions. The applied technology TractiveGroove, allowed to create excellent grip when driving on mud or deep snow. Due to the optimal combination of central inclined tread blocks and zigzag micro-grooves, the tire received excellent grip on various road surfaces and amazing lateral stability. Self-cleaning blocks are stepped, located in the shoulder area and a large number of engagement edges, increase handling and traction when driving off-road.
Pros

Cons
- Little noise on the asphalt.
Overview
The massive design of Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac tires with the aggressive arrangement of tread blocks makes the model of universal tires optimally suited for off-road use. The off-road rubber of the famous brand is able to effectively resist external mechanical damages and easily withstand severe loads in the conditions of rugged terrain.
Thanks to innovative technology and modern protection systems, not only the tires but also the disks are resistant to lateral damage and deformation. The reinforced carcass and structure of the tire exclude tears and the more than a dense layer of tread rubber protects against punctures, cuts, and splits. A special rubber compound that makes the surface of the tire rough reduces the risk of delamination.
A special rubber compound has been used in the manufacture of the tire, featuring increased stiffness, which makes the tire very strong, resistant to wear, and protects the blocks from tearing and chipping. The presence of built-in protection of wheel rims, will not allow you to damage your rims. Goodyear Wrangler Duratrac tire has special holes for mounting spikes. The presence on the tire of a bead lock prevents slippage on the tire rim.
Driving od dry, wet, and snowy roads
Wheels behave very predictably on a wide variety of surfaces.
Large-block tread pattern provides high cross-country performance even in the most difficult road situations – mud, loose fresh snow, traffic inside the ruts, etc.
Wide and deep channels in the central and shoulder areas of the tread provide powerful water drainage of the Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac. These channels remove not only water but also snow and mud from under the tread.
This tire is marked with the Mountain Snowflake Symbol, which officially confirms the tire’s ability to overcome very difficult trails in harsh winter conditions. All of these qualities make this tire very popular with off-road owners. Designed for hard work, it has an acceptable price. Increased stiffness allows its use not only on roads but also on construction sites.
Off-road driving
However, their full potential is revealed when driving off the asphalt. Excellent grip properties allow you to drive on a sandy road without fear of skids and slippage, to brake intensively, and, thanks to the trapezoidal protrusions on the sidewall, it is easy to get out of the rut. By the way, the sidewalls of the wheels are very soft and in general, the tire is sensitive to pressure.
On sticky and slippery soils, the tires feel less confident, mainly due to small grooves and poor self-cleaning.
The tires are really beautiful – the car shod in them looks more solid and masculine. The embossed sidewall, which works so well in ruts, turns out to be able to attract the attention of aesthetes.
Drivers’ reviews
Drivers note that this car tire perfectly adapts to different temperature conditions and can be safely operated in both hot and cold climates. Tires have excellent adaptability to heavy work and heavy loads and can be used for commercial vehicles. Despite its off-road qualities, the rubber has low noise levels and deservedly bears a specific marking on the sidewall for compliance with quality and comfort standards.
