I put Toyo AT3’s on last winter after a near miss wreck on the highway and while they are better than stock performance wise i feel I would get better performance out of a dedicated snow tire and summer tire. I went with the toyos because they are the lightest on the market and still went from 27mpg average to 23.5mpg average to me that’s not worth what I gained in good looks.
The best dedicated High-Performance Snows I ever had were Toyo Observe Garit KX in 225-50-17 on my old MK VI R. The colder it got, the better they gripped.
I just order TOYO tires then pay a shop to install and balance. I rotate myself and save the extra money aside for any damage/repairs I might need later. it's financially worked out to my gain over the last decade and several sets of all season and winter specific tires.
If you want ATs because of looks, there is already a proven option: Toyo Open Country ATIII EV.
When it's time to replace the tires on my Mazda CX-5 I will put 3 Peak tires on it, but I intend to drive on the factory Toyo A36 tires until they are worn down and need replacing.
I have a 2014 with 19” rims but I love the AT3s (255/60/19). They look great. They fill out the wheel arches just right and look like the right tire for the kind of vehicle it is. I’ve got 16k miles on them and they have a lot of thread left, still look practically new. I don’t notice any freeway or road noise.
If your ’25 RAV4 XLE Premium came with Toyo A39s, I’d honestly switch them sooner rather than later the hydroplaning complaints are real, especially once they wear in
I’ve had absolutely zero issues running Toyo ATIIs year round and I know plenty of people who haven’t had issues with Duratracs or KO3s either.
I have toyo open country A/T III 4 season tires on my truck and I find they perform decently in winter
Western Canadian skier here. I run Studded Toyos on my outback every winter, it’s amazing!
