Swapped my 25,000 mile GY Adventures for some very low mileage Duratracs coming off of a Trek Defender that had upsized to 275/70R18s. The Trek is owned by a service writer at a nearby LR dealer, so he got me in for dealer mounting and balancing at a discount.
I was planning to drive the Adventures a little longer and then upgrade to a Toyo, Falken or BFG, but this was a pretty affordable way to get a more off-road worthy tire and a lot more miles before I make that investment.

I'm surprised they had the Trek equipped with 33's . That sounds like a great potential bargain. Used tires are tough to sell. You running a lift or did you trim the wheel liners to fit them?

Steelies and sliders. Beautiful.
The Trek came with 255/70R18, but the owner added 1” rods and swapped to 275/70R18s. He said they rub a bit at full lock but he just lives with it.
So I get them in OEM size, no trimming required. I’m on coils, no lift, although Sarek’s longer coils are on my wish list. I was happy to find a deal.

Gotcha. You got the take off 255/70 R18 Duratracs from the Trek. I missunderstood. Thought you got the 275/70s from the Trek.
Hope they work well for you. That Sarek coil lift is a great option. If I didn't need air suspension to allow me to fit in my garage I'd for sure be adding a coil lift and fitting 33/34"
Huc, Awesome looking 110X.
It looks like you have the Style 6010 19 inch wheels? I'm getting those too, still waiting for mine to be built.
It appears you do NOT have the standard Goodyear Adventurer All Terrains, but instead the Duratracs? Did your dealer install those tires for you?
I have some time still before my build is "locked" in and been back and forth on whether I should do the wrap. What are your thoughts on the wrap?

I have a similar rig. Considering some steps / sliders. Which ones are these? They look nice at least from this angle!
New boots
