Tires Toyo or TIGAR

I got new shoes as well over the weekend. I have the sports package and went with 255/60r19 Toyo Open Country AT3.

The Toyo OpenCountry AT3 on a Honda Element were my favorite. Superior snow, mud, rain, and pavement performance.

I’ve had the Toyo at tires and prefer the Toyo’s. I’ve driven lots of off road trails with toyos, driven cross country towing another truck behind me through blizzards and they were great.

I was pleasantly surprised when my Toyo ATIII in 285/75r17 C load arrived. It has a 3 ply sidewall. I was expecting it to be 2.

Have Toyo at3s on my truck and absolutely love them. Bfgs and falkens are too heavy

Toyos have harder rubber which I wanted for summer. I've had no issues with them in road snow and even made it through a squall.

Got Toyo AT3s and no issues since.

The OEM Toyo A36 tires on my car started cracking badly at just 39,600 miles. After driving just 12 miles on the new Pirellis, here’s my honest take:

They are NOT any quieter than the Toyos.

I’m hearing pretty much the same road noise I had with the OEMs.

Don’t run the Proxes R. My PCA chapter has seen tread delamination issues with this tire on a number of cars at recent events. There’s something wrong with them that Toyo needs to fix.

Once I let a tire place talk me into buying Toyos instead of Michelins. Immediate regret as I drove away as the sidewalls were way too soft.
