I really don't typically do a lot of mudding - Most of my wheeling is on the beach or out in Uwharrie and similar conditions... so typically Dirt/Rock trails. As a result, Duratracs were the perfect selection for me. My point is if you know what type of wheeling you are typically doing, select the tire that is most conducive to your wheeling environment. Duratrac is a great tire, but mud is not its forte - it should not even be in your options.
