Tires Toyo or FEDERAL

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.

Have Toyo at3s on my truck and absolutely love them. Bfgs and falkens are too heavy

Toyos have harder rubber which I wanted for summer. I've had no issues with them in road snow and even made it through a squall.

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.

Federals will be really noisy after a few thousand miles. Almost like your wheel bearings don’t exist anymore. Had rs-rr and 615k+. 615k+ is better. Both are way off pace but great budget tires. 615k+ is actually a pretty good tire for hpde.

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
