Duratracs getting loud?

[Jupiter58]

New to me 22 rebel with 27k miles and original tires. Never had the duratracs before.
They seem pretty loud at this point. Is that normal for this mileage on these?

I can hear my neighbors Chevy Trail Boss with DuraTracs coming from a 1/4 mile away!
I feel like tire psi..and frequent tire rotations are critical for these tires!
They absolutely get louder & louder over time.

They're not all that quiet anyway.

As H20 said above - they are loud to start. and get worse. I ran mine to 64k miles and they were stupid noisy.

So what did you replace them with and how are those ones? When I do it is likely going to a 34” tire, maybe 35s, but not a fan of wide tires, more of a skinny tire guy like I do with my wrangler.

Yes, they're noisy when they're brand new, and they only get worse. I just replaced mine at 48k miles and think they were overdue. I went with Firestone Destination A/T and so far I like them. They are not quite as aggressive looking as the Duratracs, but they're super quiet and much smoother. I went with them because I got a really good deal and I know the owner of the local Firestone store so I know he wasn't going to destroy my wheels!

Look at Falken Wildpeak AT4W, Great tire and low noise. I'm running 285/65R20 34.6X11.2

Nice! I was just looking at those in 35x11.5 18 and glad to hear they are quieter!
