Is anyone running Goodyear Duratracs 255/55 R19? Are they really as loud on road/motorway as some people claim online?

I had BFG MTs on a D2 a few years ago. They weren´t particularly loud on motorways at speeds of 130kph so would the Duratracs be louder than these?

I have been looking at Pirelli ATR and Pirelly AT+ but they are considerbaly more expensive here (30 EUR per corner) than the Duratracs. I don´t want General Grabbers as I haven´t had good experience with GGs

Cheers
 
Never run them myself but I think there like marmite, some like them others claim there loud especially after a bit of wear on them.
 
They are OEM for lots of vehicles in the USA from more than one automaker. Can’t believe they would be to loud and still chosen.
 
The Pirelli ATR are decent tyres, no noisier than the Pirelli Zeros they replaced, but meant to be much longer lasting.

ATR all the way imho. That's what I had on my D3. They were brilliant, on and off road. Although they weren't great in thick mud, but they're not designed for that.

The Duratrac is a significantly different tyre with different capabilities. Bit like comparing a Defender 90 to Shogun.

I ordered 4 Pirelli AT+ earlier today. I decided against the Duratracs in the end as I will be doing a lot more road driving than offroad. I will report how I find them as I didn't come across many reviews of the AT+ on Discoverys
 
I have had them fitted on my D3 for the last year.
They have been well & truley tested on all terrains,mud,snow,gravel etc.
I find them a very good all round tyre,slightly noisier at motorway speeds,but not intrusive.

Marc.
