My bank account decided on purchasing the Duro HF243's.
Very happy with them and had the machine out on the lake this weekend to try them out.
Only purchased 4 of the Duro's which I mounted on the front and rear axles, the other 4 on the two center axles are the old beat to death Runamucks.

I’m running the Duros and like them so far. Haven’t had them in water deep enough to float yet, but that’s a VERY small percentage of what I’ll use it for. Tried running forward and backward and couldn’t tell enough difference to put them back on forward. 2.5psi seems to be the sweet spot for me. 1PSI didn’t like skidding at all, 3.5 was a noticeably harsher ride so I’ve kept them at 2.5.

I was planning on trimming off a bunch of the nubs for better skid, but after finding good pressure haven’t felt the need enough to take the time to cut them.

I use them with my tracks, got them from Richard Relics, perhaps have them ship to a USA address and you pick them up, if you are close enough

Good to hear.

Sorry to say, but I really like my 21: AT101's on my ARGO Response, you can get them priced between the 2 you listed. 
I never liked the 4x4 pattern of the Strykers, but I do not know about the Duro

I would prefer those too.
Do you know if they will work with the Argo plastic tracks?

Anyone know of a supplier up here in Canada??

Thanks

Ready to pull the trigger on 4-8 new tires for my Argo.  22X11X8
I wish I could afford the proper runamuks or whatever their new incarnation is but.....

So I have narrowed it down to one of these two tires.
I can get the Strykers for $99.00  or the Duro's for $67.00 Canadian dollars.

In your opinion which is the better purchase?

Thanks
