You might have more success if you posted it in General Tech. Have you had a search through the Dueler related threads in General Tech? I just did a quick search and there was HEAPS. I can't answer your question either, as i've only done onroad with my old set.

Hey mate.

I have had no experience with the Deset duelers, But;

I am currently running Goodyear wrangler Dura-tracs, I do mostly pretty rough nuts offroad stuff.
And these tyres still haven't let me down.
On road they handle fine, They are pretty much what I would call a Cross between a full muddy and a AT. Top tyre in my opinion :)

When I had my landcruiser I was running Maxxis Bighorns, Another very good tyre. Could not fault them in mud and rocks, Albit a bit wondery on the road, But I'm not sure that could have somthing to do with the car being 27 yr's old.

Hope this info is helpful.

Cheers
Jono

I have Bf Goodrich Mud Terrain's on my GQ and they are awesome ( I give my truck hell in the bush ) had them on 12 months now still excellent tread with most of my driving on road as it's my daily. Just the odd nicks and such from the bush.
Current ride,
96 GQII TD42
Previous rides,
87 High Lux single cab. Yes she was my first!
93 80 series Land Cruiser.
Project Zook Vitara. Previously rolled! So I just had to get the 9 inch out!
