About This Tire

The Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac 235/85R16 is an all-terrain tire, designed for full-sized pickup, SUV, and commercial vehicle drivers who prioritize off-road capability and on-road composure in year-round conditions. Its tread design and compound focus on versatile traction performance, durability under heavy loads, and self-cleaning characteristics for varied terrain.

The tire features a symmetric tread pattern with large shoulder blocks and highly angled center tread elements, combined with a rugged compound engineered to resist chipping and chunking during towing applications. Goodyear's TractiveGroove Technology creates thousands of biting edges at the base of circumferential grooves, while zigzag sipes and stepped shoulder blocks enhance traction in mud and snow. Driver feedback points to strong wet weather performance and comfortable ride quality, with solid dry handling and good long-term durability.

Compared to highway-focused tires, it adds off-road traction while maintaining reasonable on-road manners. Overall, it's a solid choice for work trucks and SUVs used for mixed driving that includes dirt roads, job sites, and occasional challenging terrain alongside daily highway use.
