Tires Toyo or Kumho
I have a set of Kumho A/T tires on my beater 4runner and tbh they’re not snow tires and they’ve still been fantastic in the snow. Don’t have the best ride quality, but I’ve thoroughly liked them for the last 35k miles.
I had some toyo open country at+ on mine loved them, good ride and perfect off road. I bought them because they are 75% cheaper here compared to bf KO's
The Toyo at3 on the other hand has been great, a lot lighter which makes driving a lot more fun and less fuel consumption, basically no road noise and a lot cheaper then the ko2's
I’ve been with the Kumho Ecstas and they’ve been a dream. One of the better mid range tires to replace the oem with.
I put Kumho Crugen HT51 at the advice of a trusted tire guy. They are only a few weeks old but so far so good at the price he got em on for.
I like Hankook but used Toyo observe before. It was fine and better than any all season.
I had these on my Autocross car last season. I changed to the Kumho V730 early this season and it’s a game changer.
I've had cheap Kumho ECSTA AST's. That you get what you paid for, when money is tight. Their ECSTA Platinum LX was a much better tire, and actually didn't have wear issues which the PQ46 chassis is known for (feathering). Decent grip.
I just got my first experience on the Toyos this morning in some snow here in Virginia. The Toyos were really pretty awful :-(. They're fine for getting going and driving around - in fact, even starting off a hill was really no issue, but God help you if you have to stop quickly...because they wont. It was a slide-fest even with just a thin layer of snow.
Kuhmo TA31 is used as OE on some vehicles. It’s been ok in all season performance but absolute garbage on snow.
