Have now had time and a couple seasons to run the Han Kook Dynapro atm 265 75 16.

This was my second winter with these tires and they were "just o.k."
The front passenger side collected three nails/screws which i think has pretty muck f@cked the tire beyond safe use. At the time they were cheap enough. As the old saying goes
"long after the joy of cheap wares off your left with a sour taste in your mouth". They are going to be replaced soon enough. The ride like your on jello going around corners.

Take them back where you bought them. The reason: "ride disturbance". They will be prorated to the amount of tread remaining on the tires, and the credit will be applied to the new tires you buy.
BTW, "jello ride" = low tire pressures or worn shocks. GL

I had put buckshot mudders 265-75-16 on mine for winter 10ply; I took them off last week and put on cooper AT3's C rated on it and so far I love them I have driven them in the snow ice rain and dry and they are excellent in all conditions and they are quiet going down the road.

My Duratracs have 40,000 miles on them and people still ask "those new tires??".. They will go 60k+ eazy which I did not expect.. Rotated them at 17k and 35k.. Still smooth and still quiet with the windows up.. Put the windows down and you can definately hear them but they are 305/70/16's... I think any tire that big will have some sound to it.

Next set, I am planning on Duratracs but either 265 or 285's... These 305's mounted weigh 84lbs per wheel! They HAVE to be eating 1-2 mpg.. Ah well!

I have the duratrac 265's and they are c rated. I had the E rated on for two weeks which is what I wanted. But didn't notice any real difference besides the thicker ones didn't feel squirmy at all. Or less flex in the tire I guess which I liked better. I get 16-18 mpg roughly but haven't figured since cai and header.
