Tires Toyo or MRF

I've gone through two sets of nitto ridge grapplers, and recently switched to toyos. I like the toyos better.

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 like Hankook but used Toyo observe before. It was fine and better than any all season.

I've slashed sidewalls and upgraded to thicker sidewalls (Toyo AT 2), never encountered a sidewall puncture after that.

Idk if the showroom guys have control over that because I asked for Apollo and I got MRF. The sales guy told me the bikes get allocated at random.

But coming to the tyre itself I would say the MRFs are good only. Never felt the lack of grip except one time when my tyre was in slushy mud. Appearance wise also the MRF's look a little wider compared to the Apollo's since the tyre profile is more curved in the latter if that matters to you.

Economical and life span, I would recomend mrf wanderer. 6k per tire and will give you 70k+ km life.

I don’t share the same disdain for them that everyone else on this sub though. Our CX-5+stock tires is still 10x quieter than the Honda Accord+Pirellis that it replaced.

Wife ran Celcius for 3 years. Burned out at 30k

They were great year one. So so year two. Struggled with driveway year 3.

never again a Toyo for me after many bubbles in their sidewalls.
