Toyo Open Country Mud Terrain Tire
Toyo recently introduced its newest tire, the Toyo Open Country Mud Terrain (M/T) radial. While this tire isn't the traditional hardcore rockcrawling or extreme mud tire; it will survive the toughest backcountry challenges and perform well. The targeted market for the Open Country is those who need a comfortable, quiet, well mannered daily driven Mud Terrain tire that works as a weekend warrior on moderate to tough terrain, tackling serious trails. To accommodate a wide range of buyers, the Open Country M/T was packed with technology to make it capable of handling severe heat and frequently changing loads. It has an aggressive tread for traction and good looks, deep siping and an open-shoulder design for improved grip, and tread-block stabilizers. The tire uses a three-ply polyester casing, two wide steel belts, and two spiral-wound nylon cap plies, all of which make handling comfortable and predictable, on dirt or asphalt. In addition to its durable construction, the Open Country M/T uses an abrasion-resistant compound in the sidewall, shielding its most vulnerable area. This tire has an excellent load rating, possibly the highest available in a mud terrain: the 38x15.50x18LT tire has a 128 rating, meaning it can handle up to 3960 pounds per tire. It's also capable of a 99-mph top speed.

35x12.5r17. I bought these to replace a set of Bf Goodrich Km's. These tires now have 6,000 miles on them from my lifted 1988 F250 and they have barely worn at all. Great, and I mean great traction in snow, mud, wet pavement. I cant get these things stuck. My freinds have started calling me to go with them soley cause i can pull them through stuff they cant pass. These tires are 100% grade A. Will definetly re-invest when the time comes

93 K1500 35x13.5x15. After 3500 miles I like these tires even more than when I first purchased them. It snows alot where I live and I have never owned a better tire for traction on icy snowy roads.I talked to a buddy of mine who purchased a set of M/T's, obviously a different namebrand, and he hates them! He says driving on icy snowy roads acctually scares him now (I think he's just getting old myself).Anyhoo!!! The tires ride nice,They are very quiet for an M/T,The load rating is the best Iv'e seen,They look killer on my truck. The only problem was with the dealer. I never thought I would see the day when a tire store could mess up a simple allignment and tire install but they did.I had to take it somwhere else to get the allignment done right.enough about that.... Folks if you want a damn good M/T tire this is the one.

I've had a set of 285/75/16's on my 2005 Tacoma double cab for 5.5 years and 42K miles now. As far as wear goes, I'd probably get at least another 15K before I had to replace them, but I worry a bit about tires that heavy being more than 5 years old or so.
I do most all my wheeling in snow 3 or more feet deep, and aired down to 10 PSI, these tires are super effective. Under some circumstances, I've had to throw chains on all four, but my brothers with their Jeeps and BFG MT's were forced to do the same.
Overall, I'm pleased enough to buy another set, and considering the expense, that's saying something.

I would recommend these tires for someome that runs a lighter vehicle. I have a 2004 Silverado 2500 HD and I did all of the right things to take care of them, but I only got a little over 30 k out of these tires.

Looks great, quiet ride
|
Cons:
|
Low mileage, heavy, expensive
|
|
Love the look and the ride, but I hate the price tag and low mileage they get. I have 27,000 miles on mine and they are pretty much bald (I rotated every 3,000 miles to keep from cupping). I wouldn't mind the price tag if they would get closer to 50,000 miles, but at 27,000 miles it's too pricey. As far as traction goes I haven't had a problem on or off road, snow or ice (you just need to know how to drive on it to begin with.)

Have had these on a Dodge 1500 4x4 for 3 years. Have worn very well, 35k with another 5+ left. However, new very quite, but have increased in noise the last 5k noticably. Very heavy tire, killed my already bad mpg's. I'm getting about 10-12 city, maybe 15 hwy.

Pros:
|
Bullet proof sidewall, can almost run flat
|
Cons:
|
Wear a little fast
|
|
These are probably the best mud tire I have ever run in the deserts of Nevada. The problem here is there are alot of highway miles inbetween the dirt roads so aired down tires wear pretty fast. I have about 25,000 miles and they are baaaaald as hell. Never had a flat. Too pricey for me now, I am going to try the Maxxis Bighorns for $80 a tire less. I am wondering why they never tested the Toyo's in 4 wheeler magazine tire shootout.
