May 28, 200916 yr I bought a set of these tires with rims. Im not blameing the person who sold it to me:grin: but does anyone else have these tires. They are loud, i dont remember my brothers mud tires being this loud. Ive only really started noticeing this since my exhaust got fixed. Theyve been good for 2 years not falling apart or anything but sheesh. I found some yokahamas and falkins in 13 inch sizes. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem.
May 28, 200916 yr To tell you the truth, I've never heard of the douglas brand of tires. I wonder if they're a knockoff brand. I would toss them if they seem overly loud or unstable. Twitch
May 28, 200916 yr Yea, the tires I used to have on the wagon were Douglas Xtra-trac 13s. Bought them from wally world and put about 3k on them till I just got the pugs with BFGs! The Douglas didn't seem loud but they were soft, sidewalls were too weak. From what I've heard Douglas tend to blow out alot (Mine havn't and don't look like they would) I can't complain, they got me thru 2 winters wiht out getting stuck (But then again subarus don't get stuck ) The BFG Long Trail T/A radials are good tires!
May 28, 200916 yr http://www.measuredup.com/company/Douglas-Tires-3962 LAMO! well I had the 165/80R13s Word to the wise: Stay away from Douglas, Uniroyal, and any other tires you can buy from Wal-mart. Remember, Their not a Toy store, Clothing store, Electronics store, Hardware store, Tire store.. Thats what I keep getting told everytime I ask or complain about something by the people that work there. -Tom
May 28, 200916 yr Got em from Walmart havent noticed increased noises, my car is pretty loud anyways, but they seem Ok. They are chat tires but its tough to find the tires in 13's, and they were really cheap.
May 29, 200916 yr I had a set on a Mitsu***************y Mirage, they were ok. I wouldn't trust them on anything bigger than a wagon, since they are pretty lightly built.
May 29, 200916 yr Author they go through the snow just great but since ive gotten my exhaust done there loud. Its strange.

That place is a cesspool. I wouldn't go there if they had the only vaccines to prevent my @#$%^#$% from falling off. Anyways, Walmart tires: Don't put them on your car if you don't like the side of dark highways late at night. Them being noisy is the least of your problems. Have a good day!
May 29, 200916 yr Im in the situation where im stuck with them until they wear out. *Well I could speed up the process* Muuhahaha!! Lol
May 29, 200916 yr Walmart sells bfg's. What is the most aggressive tire sold for a 13 inch rim? From what I've seen, the Winterforce. I think its made by Cooper, but I'm not sure. You'd probably be better off getting atv rims and tires for real traction. Twitch PS: I think its the 95-02 Suzuki Quadrunner that has the same lug pattern
May 29, 200916 yr oh yeah douglas Crap ! My Mothers 78 Nova Blew one once. Brand new from walmart. 205/70 R14's tires are Junk ! Douglas's are Cheap Horrible Tires.
May 29, 200916 yr For the most part I get good used sets from a shop by my house. You can get a matching set for $80 installed.
