Tires Toyo or SUMITOMO
I’ve had Toyo OC, BFG TA/KO2+3, and went the FW AT4 now. Got about 9k on em…and they’re my favorite tire so far. Been on beach, mud, rain and frozen.
I am leaning toward my next set being Toyo GSI-6, for a few reasons. Namely, H speed rating (not that I go over the 104mph governed speed of a 2017 Prius Prime) and max pressure of 51psi rather than 44psi. I usually run at 50psi, and find tires only approved to 44psi to be only marginally acceptable to me.
Sumitomo Encounter ATs are hands down the best bang for the buck.
Ohio here, get yourself a set of Toyo Celsius mileage phenomenal, traction phenomenal, ride is phenomenal
Toyo AT3 - 3 peak rated as well. Amazing in the snow
My stock tires are wearing the same. I looked at the Toyo tires a while back, and iirc they were pricey. Yours is the first pic of it that I’ve seen mounted and I agree they do look good.
I did buy those as replacements on my 2015.5 V60 and they were great A/S tires in Massachusetts.
I lost 2-3 mpg. I went from stock to 285/70/17s Toyos OC AT2s.
On the gen 3 they lasted until 30k miles, on the gen 4, both cars made it to 25k before replacement was needed. They aren't the best.
My patience ran out around 3000 miles. I hated how vague they felt in the rain, and I was not interested in waiting until winter to see how much worse they’d be on snow and ice.
