Tires Toyo or Sava

Western Canadian skier here. I run Studded Toyos on my outback every winter, it’s amazing!

The Toyo snow tires on my car have been awesome. I kinda used them all season because the grip was just too fun. Somehow have lasted nearly 30k miles with a third of the tread left too, and I drive my WRX spirited on curvy roads a lot.

Snow tires make a car with decent grip in the snow into great grip in the snow. Especially in the slushy slop.

The only downside with the Toyos for me is slightly worse handling on highways...they like to wander. But everywhere else they're better, esp off-road. Never hear them slipping on anything. Quiet vs Pirellis. Same or maybe slightly better efficiency than Pirellis too, if you get SL rather than LT. It'll be a little worse with the LT.

I've had the Toyo's for a week and really like them so far. Efficiency is equivalent to stock 20's, and they are more aggressive.

I had 255/85/16 toyo m/ts and they handled great in a snow storm that dumped unexpectedly. Im definitely getting them again. They look great too and aren't that loud

I had the Toyos on a different truck. Liked them a lot.

The only complaint i have for it is that the stock toyo tires are not “optimal” for extreme winter weather; they will still get the job done.

open country are great in the snow and do okay off-road. as has been said they're not the greatest in the rain.

Anyways, I mounted the tires in my wheels and right away on the tire balancer two they wobbled bad. I balanced them but they’re shit tires. The vibrate, have a very “hollow” pop type noise when hitting bumps, and overall a bit squirrelly on the road.

Have Toyo at3 on my 2024 3500 Silverado srw. Previously had Goodyear duratracs. The only upside to these at3 is the quietness of them. They are worse than the Goodyears in every other category. I’m in Saskatchewan Canada… combination of highway pavement miles, gravel road driving. Found them to be the least favourite tire I have ever ran in the winter. They currently have 37000km / 23000M and I’d guess they are at 25% tread left. Won’t be getting another set.
