Tires Toyo or GENERAL TIRE

I put on a set of General Altimax tires and there was a massive difference in driveability in the snow.

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.

We are going with General Altimax RT45s on our 2025 Model 3 LR RWD. Grand touring, 700 A A, XL load. Well rated. Good price.

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.

Western Canadian skier here. I run Studded Toyos on my outback every winter, it’s amazing!

The Toyo snow tires on my car have been awesome. I kinda used them all season because the grip was just too fun. Somehow have lasted nearly 30k miles with a third of the tread left too, and I drive my WRX spirited on curvy roads a lot.

Snow tires make a car with decent grip in the snow into great grip in the snow. Especially in the slushy slop.

The only downside with the Toyos for me is slightly worse handling on highways...they like to wander. But everywhere else they're better, esp off-road. Never hear them slipping on anything. Quiet vs Pirellis. Same or maybe slightly better efficiency than Pirellis too, if you get SL rather than LT. It'll be a little worse with the LT.

Now, here is the weak link for the CCX-70- and CX-90: The factory tires (Toyo Open Country A51 on our CX-70) are highway touring tread, only 8/32" tread depth brand new, and a very tame and dry pavement oriented tread pattern designed for quiet ride. We live in the midwest and I am kicking around swapping out the tires, but therein lies another constraint, at least on our model: It has 19" rims and factory installed Toyo's are 265/55R19 size (109V load rating). That is an oddball/rare tire size.

Have Toyo at3 on my 2024 3500 Silverado srw. Previously had Goodyear duratracs. The only upside to these at3 is the quietness of them. They are worse than the Goodyears in every other category. I’m in Saskatchewan Canada… combination of highway pavement miles, gravel road driving. Found them to be the least favourite tire I have ever ran in the winter. They currently have 37000km / 23000M and I’d guess they are at 25% tread left. Won’t be getting another set.

I have a 2023 CX-5 Turbo, and was thrilled to replace those Toyos at 28k miles. Those Toyos suck on anything other than dry pavement.
