30k km with them. But the SUV version. No RT at the end of the model name.
Amazing off-road.
Loud and noisy. But surprisingly, they get quieter at faster speeds. For road trips I run them with higher atm. (2.6-2.8 front, 2.8-2.9 back)
Really ****ing strong side wall. parked on a metal plate and it was fine.

Interesting update - thanks for posting!
Curious what others are seeing for sizes in North America. My current size is 255/65R19 for what I presume in the previous version of the Wrangler DuraTrac I have mounted now. When I search the website originally posted (link), which appears to be an AUS site I only see 255/55R19.
When I hit GoodYear North American site (link) I don't see the DuraTrac RT-LT tire in any 19" sizes. I'm not surprised there may be a difference in US vs AUS or other markets in terms of available products, just want to double check I didn't mess up in my search.
While I have just under 25K on my DuraTrac's now - and frankly I'd prefer switch back to my beloved BFG KO/2 rubber on 18" wheels I ran seemingly forever on my Toyota's, I'm starting to the trust the DuraTrac's. An improvement by GoodYear in regards to tires might forgo my doing the Lucky8 caliper conversion kit and new 18" wheels so I can switch rubber which would save $$$. While I"m still leaning toward the caliper conversion kit having an option would be nice.
I"m clearly confused (& not for the first time
) on the DuraTrac RT tire sizes not being listed, any insights are appreciated.

The US Goodyear website says that the Duratrac RT is not available in 255/65r19 (19" Defender tire size), and directs me to either the original Duratrac or the Adventure. Does anyone here have any insight as to whether or not Goodyear will make this tire for 19" wheels (specifically 255/65r19)? I suppose it would be too much to ask for a one size larger, such as a 255/70r19 but a guy can dream.
