The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac RT, a 3PMSF rugged all-terrain, shared seventeenth place on the snow rating but was one of the best tyres in the measured tests on both snow and ice. On the data it was the strongest rugged design on ice.
The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac RT was the snow specialist of the all-terrain group. It was best in snow braking and snow handling, and snow traction was also right on the pace. I also found it competitive on dirt, with good objective grip and decent subjective control. The compromise came on the road: dry braking was near the rear, wet braking and wet handling were well behind the front tyres, and measured noise was not strong. Comfort was also only mid-pack. It suits drivers who put snow and loose-surface grip high on the list, but it is not the best choice if wet-road braking and refinement matter most.
The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac RT finished eleventh overall. It is acceptable in normal dry driving, but weak braking and wet grip place it near the bottom of this group.
