Toyo Open Country are the only tires I have run for the last 20+years. Across three 4Runners. Close to 500k miles between my ‘98 SR5, ‘05Limited and 2020 ORP. I live in Washington and do quite a bit more off roading than it sounds like you do. The Open County Toyo line has been fantastic off-road, but I love them because they are so quiet and comfortable on the highway for such a capable tire.
I commute to DIA from the Springs a LOT, and I have the AT3s. Great tire, lightweight enough to preserve MPGs, but still does well in snow. Plus they still look pretty good. Had them 20k miles now and they're still in great shape.
They are very grippy on dry (I'm using 205/45/17), steering response is fantastic, very direct. On wet they seem fine, though I'm driving very cautiously on wet.
You can get new Sailun tires for less than $115each from Big O Tires. They are good tires for the money, basically designed to do exactly what you need. New safe tires that fit a tight budget.
Toyo opencountry CTs all day I have 100,000 on my current set and still will last another summer, they are definitely in the upper end of price but they last and they are great in the snow/ice
I got a blow out on a pothole, Toyota towed car, i had to drive to a dealer myself to buy a Toyo and drive it where my car was, and that got me on the road
That being said my experience says that the Sailun are a better choice. I have had less comebacks with this brand.
They hold air, haven't gotten popped, and seem to be holding up better than brand new goodyear wrangler tires and new bf Goodrich tires I've had to buy.
Very good off-road tire.
And like all MT’s, not the greatest on-road.
And definitely not great in ice or snow.
never again a Toyo for me after many bubbles in their sidewalls.
