Tires Toyo or Achilles

I put TOYO Observe G3-Ice on my Tacoma last winter. I live in the middle of nowhere on the other side of the country and they were great.

Toyo Observes have the best traction on snow and ice of any non-studded tire. They're impregnated with crushed walnut shells, which act as mini studs. As a result they're noisy on dry pavement. But if traction is your top priority they can't be beat.

I got new shoes as well over the weekend. I have the sports package and went with 255/60r19 Toyo Open Country AT3.

The Toyo OpenCountry AT3 on a Honda Element were my favorite. Superior snow, mud, rain, and pavement performance.

I’ve had the Toyo at tires and prefer the Toyo’s. I’ve driven lots of off road trails with toyos, driven cross country towing another truck behind me through blizzards and they were great.

I was pleasantly surprised when my Toyo ATIII in 285/75r17 C load arrived. It has a 3 ply sidewall. I was expecting it to be 2.

I did get one used and it seemed to hold up just ok until I ran over a small branch at 35 mph. The thread peeled from the tire body from the inner area outwards, slowly leaking air.

MFD date of 2014 for my Toyos on my G. I think they aren’t bad, for the price

I'm not sure if it's luck or they just suck, but within 6k miles of owning my mazda, I've had 2 toyo tires with sidewall problems. I never had any issues on my Michelins

Mine started getting noisy after like 20k miles. I replaced them with some crappy laufen tires lol
