Tires Toyo or OEM Subaru

Its the tires folks, not the car. Anyone can do that, if you have reliable tires.

Winter tires are significantly superior to AWD. Should you question that.

I have the Toyo Open Country A/T III EVs. After about 3k mi, I’m observing 1.9 mpk on a G1 Quad in all purpose. Coming from the 21” Pirellis, I’m pretty happy with the road noise and how they’ve handled, especially this winter so far.

Look at the Toyo AT 3 EV’s, they are super light for an AT tire. They rode great, zero noise.

I went with a set of 5 Toyo Open Country AT3 in 265/75/16 which have better snow performance were much cheaper at $185/tire.

My 22 WRX was also good in the snow, there was times where people were getting stuck especially on hills and I would just cruise by with no issues. I had pilot sport all season 4 tires which are only meant for light snow and I had no issues.

If I'm reading this date code correctly, these Toyos are approaching 6 years old. This makes sense as they are pretty noisy, could stand to be grippier and the rubber just does not feel very pliable. So I need to ditch these for some new all-seasons.

I like the Toyo T1R , but damn it's an oooold design now...toyo really need to update it.

Toyos kinda suck, especially after some wear.

With stock Toyo tires = shit.
