Tread wears funny in the middle. Tires chunk very easy
|
|
Bought my open country AT's used with 80% tread left and havent really been to happy. At 35 psi they have worn almost bald in the middle of the tire after about only 7500 miles. They do thier job in rain, and mild offroad enviroments. Not very happy with these tires, maybe i got a bad set. Ive read review on the net about others with these tires having the same wear problems im having. They also chunk very badly when going through rocks.

Hardens up too much below -10*C
|
|
I bought these back in the spring. They may not be the best tire available, but they are able to do light truck work in fields. I find they don't lose tracion that easily, but do notice they're not up to the task for the weekend off roader. The main down side to these tires is, that when it gets below freezing (-10*C and below) the rubber hardens up too much and you feel like your are driving on ice. But if it's around the freezing point, they seem to do the job. My tires cost me $190 cnd balanced and installed.

LT version not available in some sizes
|
|
I could not be happier with these tires, in LT235/75-15 for my '94 ExEB. Have lasted 60K miles of mixed use. I drive a lot of highway miles, so I appreciate that they are quieter than most A/T tires. Also sees use on logging roads and jeep trails so I chose the LT construction for strength - the AT Duelers on it previously would catch a flat every time it went over pavement. You definitely don't want to over inflate these though, as they will crown and wear down the centers. I run 30psi. We bought a 2000 ExXLT and put P235/75-15 on it as it will see only paved use. Bought a second 2000 ExXLT with 16" factory wheels and was disappointed to find that Open Country A/T is not made in LT265/70-16 size.

Tires are a litle noisy on highway
|
|
I bought a 98 X Sport and the Toyo's came with it. So far they seem to be a pretty good tire. To be honest my ball joints went bad, and the toe-in is what I think is causing them to be noisy. I'm a developer and I am constantly on the road and off the road. The tires grip well offroading and they clean themselves when in mud and snow. So over all I have to say they are a pretty good tire.

traction not great
|

I had these on my 2003 chevy blazer. Did not like them. Good on clean and semi wet roads. I get 80 inches of rain a year and some snow and a fair amount of ice. The overall performance for me was fair at best. I actually traded them for a newer set of Les Shwab xtx tires. Better traction and wear.
