Tires Toyo or KENDA

Good tires too, love the toyo at3.

Even with the stock Toyos, this car handled like a champ.

Toyo AT 3’s for me 285/70-17 anything with 3 mountain snow peak will be better than factory.

I will add that I saw that Consumer Reports gave a surprisingly good review of the Kenda Vezda Touring 4S.

Dry braking: 4/5

Wet braking: 3/5

Handling: 3/5

Hydroplaning: 3/5

Snow traction: 4/5

Ice braking: 4/5

Ride comfort: 3/5

Noise: 4/5

Rolling resistance: 3/5

Tested tread life (Miles): 50000

Verdict: "Pros: Impressive snow and ice grip as well as dry braking performance. Cons: 50,000 mile projected tread life based on CR's test is so-so. CR's Take: A great choice if winter traction is a priority."

I have the Toyos at3 EV and love them

Get the Toyo AT3's. I just got mine after extensive research. Falken wildpeaks are too heavy and BFG KO3's don't perform as well as the Toyo AT3's. You'll get 50k miles out of them. I've had BFG KO3s before and the Toyos are better. I drive year round in my Toyos and they're grippy, quiet and don't lose very much mpg. Had the Micheling Mud and snow tires and they didn't perform nearly as well as the Toyo AT3's.

I cant speak for the K657 specifically, but I ran a Kenda K761 rear on my CM400. I found that the Kenda tire chipped and fragmented really easily but otherwise was just an OK tire.

Major tire recalls in 2025 involved Continental, Nitto, and Toyo for tread detachment/production issues, affecting many truck/SUV tires like Nitto Crosstek 2, Toyo Open Country, and Continental TerrainContact/Grabberlines.

I got some Toyo Open Country AT3s and it didn't take long for me get a huge sidewall gash and I was even driving at reasonable slow speed on a fire road.

Had Toyo A36’s on a Mazda CX-5 and they sucked ass in the rain.
