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.

They suck @$$ in SAND
|

These out preformed my BFGs in the mud and on trails. I thought they sucked in the sand but I really don't like wheeling in the sand anyways. I am running 33x12.50x15 on my 2000 TJ and so far love these tires. They are high priced but in my opinion you get what you pay for.

Mud, Rocks, Gravel, Sand, Quiet, Great Tire!

Cons:

Look and ride too damn good for a MT!!!
|
|
Ford Excursion 6.8 V10 w/ 37-31.50-R17. Excellent Tire. Looks great, rides even better. Very slight hum on the pavement no where near as annoying as ALL other MT's I've run. Great build, very durable. Excellent mud traction, gumbo, clay, and blackland, even at full pressure (always better to deflate) digs hard and side tread will keep grabbing even when tire is sunk. Cleans out great. No slipping in deep Texas sand. Great traction on gravel and rocky terrain. Great on wet pavement; displaces water. I run a lot of off-road bogs and trail trials and I and all of my friends swear by these trials. I haven't had mine on for too long so I can't make my own comments on wear but all of my friends have tons of miles on them and they still are going strong.
So many people are so ignorant. Lots complain about wear but its a mud tire and it must be rotated every 3000 miles and kept well pressured on the road. Anyone not getting good life is not taking care of there tires. All MT's will wear fast if not taken care of.
Others complain about the way the tires ride. These are the cream of the crop for Toyo off-road tires. They are not a knock off brand and they do not produce knock off tires. Its very possible that its your vehicle that is causing bad handling. Some reviewers even complain of tracking left or right. NEWS: A tire is round!!! If its pulling, then the front end of your ride is out of align!
And for snow goers, this is called a Mud Tire, not a snow tire, so don't dog a tire just because it might have bad traction in something that it was not designed for in the first place.
Price--You get what you pay for. These are the tires that us off-roaders use at the nationals. The best is never cheap.
Summing up, if you want an excellent tire for nearly all off-road terrains and still would like great road handling and ride, Toyo Open Country MT is the tire!

I do a lot of ranch driving and deer hunting on logging roads. Driving over washouts and through silt the tire doesn't skit a beat. I would recommend them to everyone. 40,000 mi and there is still life left in them!

I had a set of 35x12.50r18s on my 05 Dodge 2500. They are great for heavy duty apps.I bashed mine into a rock so hard it put an 8 inch crack in the wheel along the bead and it didn't even scuff the tire and still held air.

Have on an 88 toyota 4runner, inline 4 with performance mods. My yota suprisingly hauls these well!?!? Just got them, not as loud as suspected, ride smooth (even for a light truck), I bet really fun in the mud... cant wait!!! Awesome and attractive tread design. Great tire so far!

Look good, last long, aggressive traction, quiet on highway.
|
Cons:
|
They don't make a 38 or 40 for a 17" rim!
|

Best tire I've ever owned. 37"x13.5"R17. Have over 75,000 Kms on them and still a little less than 1/4" of tread left, and my foots always to the floor. Very quiet on highway for a M/T, even when lugs new. Good in mud, snow, gravel, and on highway. Alright in rain, but can break traction if you get on er hard - DIESEL POWER!!! Been trying to burn them off so my wife will let me buy new ones, but they just keep going and going... Recommend them to everyone that asks. And they are a very attractive - mean looking tire. Only reason I'm going to get something different is because I want to go bigger, and sizes are limited for 17" rims.
