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.

Look good, aggressive traction all conditions, quiet on highway.

Cons:

Milage, tread life
|

Just finishing 2nd set on a 07Jk unlimited. Run 295/70r17. I have used on all terrains and towing a trailer. They work great with a small sacrifice in milage and tread life. Probably getting a 3rd set. 1st set got 41,000 miles this set only have 36,000 miles and worn out. Been told 35,000/set is what to expect.

I have had these tires for about two weeks now. I know that's not long enough for a very detailed review but I am satisfied so far. They are quiet for a mud tire, my commute is around 100 miles a day and I have not noticed any real issues thus far. I have 33x12.50 on a z71 1500. I have had the boggers, mud grapplers, kuhmo kl78s, Mickey thompson MT, BFG MT and all terrain, and the maxxis mudders. I have has pros and cons with all sets of tires. I'm hoping that with how much these tires cost me I will get good use out of them. However I will most likely invest in a set of M16s before they completely wear out. But the toyos do have a slight hum but nothing to much and are rather smooth for a 33 on a 20 inch rim.

Good wear rate

Cons:

Heavy, balancing can be an issue on a Tundra
|
|
These tire are great, expect for being heavy and impacting MPG, and balancing on the finicky 2nd Gen Tundra can lead to pre-mature wear and a shaky steering wheel. Since their installation they have been rotated and balance by a Toyota dealership, and still the problem persist. I’m not sure if this is truly due to balance or out of round, but again, the dealership can’t get them “perfect”. Long story short, I’d put them on any other truck than the Tundra.

I Drive a lot and go thru a lot of tires. It took a while for me to decide to spend this much money on a tire. I went ahead and did it. I was amazed the minute I hit the road. I have a Suburban 3/4 ton and this tire made it feel like a Cadillac. The smoothest ride I have had in this truck. I went back to the dealer to check the air pressure and had them boost it to 45psi. It is perfect. I can't believe this is a E rated tire. I can't say enough about this tire. You won't believe it until you try it yourself. They have a very slight hum that gives the driver a sensation that you are going faster than you are as you cruse down the highway. I like that. It reminds me that I am driving a 4/4..

I've used several M/T tires in the past. I've drive everywhere, street, mud, trail, sand, and snow. These tires are the best I've ever used. My only recommendation would be to have them siped once the siping they come with wears out. That makes a huge difference. I had a pair with 15,000 miles on them and they were slipping on wet pavement (of course I had 800 lb/ft of wheel torque) and once they were siped, I couldn't spin them even if I tried. Also these tires, when taken care of and properly rotated last forever. I have gotten an average of 50,000 miles out of them.

Pros:
|
Mild on-roadnoise for an M/T, good sidewall protection
|
Cons:
|
Heavy
|
|
315/75-16 here (35's). Surprised by the on-road noise quality, just a mild hum. Heavy but sturdy tire. Great grip in rain. Handles well at street pressures; I have yet to air it down drastically. Outer edges clean well, middle tends to clog up more but still pulls my Hummer H3 well in Florida mud. Love how thick the sidewall is versus my factory Brigestone A/T's that was cut and flattened by a piece of plywood. If you're driving style is mostly on-road with occasional off-road adventures, this is the tire for you.

these tires are kick butt. They have been on my 06' Chevy 3500 Duramax and they perform flawlessly. I tried Firestone,Kumho,and Yokohamas and these are the best tire I've ever had,
