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.

This is the best tire I have ever owned. I have had them on 2 different trucks and i love them. I am about to purchase my 3rd set soon. I currently have 46k on my 35x12.50x20 on a 2007 Ford F250 Superduty. I previously had them on a 2004 Dodge 3500 SRW Cummins w/ 6speed manual and towed a 32' trailer often and I loved them. Les Schwab in Lake Stevens, WA has sold me both sets and the last set they shipped to me all the way in Augusta,GA when I was unable to purchase them locally....

As far as a daily driving rain/mud/snow/sand/trail tire is concerned, I have not one bad thing to say about these. Yes they are costly, but they will tackle everything and the wear has been great. Not sure where folks are getting the idea that these tires are terrible in the snow, I've got 33X12.5 on a f150 and was just plowing through two plus feet of snow last weekend. Maybe it's the driver and not so much the tire

I have an 08 hd. Currently I'm running 40x15.50x22. These are by far the best riding tire I have owned. The down-fall is i only got 22k miles out of this set and they are completly worn out. I rotated them every 4,000 miles as well as aligned them every 7,000 miles. Paying 3,400 for the set is rediculous for only getting 22k miles out of them. I am hoping I just got a faulty set. But running a 22 in rim on a truck whit 12 inches of lift, you are limited to what tires are made in the size you need. I'm giving toyo another chance bc I'm not going with super swamper and Nitto Mud Grapplers are rediculously noisy.

Installed these tires on my 2006 Titan;Rotated every 10,000km and approaching 80,000km;might get to 100,000km.Anyone who rides with me comments on the lack of tire noise.I have used mudders on other trucks I've owned and nothing has come close to these.Poor traction on ice/packed snow,yes.But these are mudders people! I drive 100,000km a year, 95% highway, but I then go offroad and these are the best tires I've used. Starting to price out my next set.

Never got stuck and looks great!

Cons:

price and weight

37x14.5R15 on Ram 1500 with 8" lift.
I don't know why everyone keeps saying they wear fast. I have 15000 on mine and they are just now starting to wear. Maybe they should rotate them every 6000, and remember they are a mud terrain!
I have been through plenty of mud and snow and have never gotten stuck. These tires are awsome! They are heavy however which has decreased my fuel millage a little. But it's worth the trade off of being able to go anywhere.

Very good tire. i run a set of 33's on a cherokee. I rock crawl and beat the crap out of them. Aired down to 8 psi so far with no beadlock and they have held up great. If you want them to drive in deep snow try deflating. No tire will go through snow very well when it is hard as a rock. With center lug siping added these tires are amazing in slick rock and icy road conditions. Very smooth on the highway. Would definitely recommend these tires.

I bought a set of the new tread design Toyo MTs and they are almost as noisy on the highway as super swampers, I took them back and turned them in for a set off the original MT design. Other than being loud they were great.

I started with a set of 37x13.50-20 on my 08 GMC Duramax, they were realy stiff riding and made my truck wander the road, so I went to the 35x12.50-20 hoping that would help, no suck luck still rides like shit! BFG MT's, Kumho MT's, Hamkook MT's were all better in my opinion, and way cheaper

works good in mud and snow, i have a half ton pickup so no extra weight to sink me down. To all you guys saying it sukcs on ice and packed snow, do you know any tire that F***ing that does good in packed snow and ice? I don't so just drive slower and maybe save some cash and get a set of chains for ice? then you won't have something to B**ch about

01 F350 diesel, 37X13.50-17. I use to sell tires for 7 years. I've always had trucks and used several tires choices. I've been impressed with these tires. My truck does 80% highway as a daily driver, and 20% off road( sand, packed trails, some mud, some beach, and snow) These tires are about to be replaced and have 40,000 on them. Only ever balanced once, when installed. Very good all around tire, but its not a bogger if that is what you are looking for, as good on the street as a bfg At, but better in the mud.

08 RAM 3500 SRW CUMMINS, 35x12.5x17 I only say the con because when I get home, there is a lot of heat coming off these things, a lot of rolling resistance to build that kind of heat. As far as the bad in snow/ice reviews...?? WHAT? ARE YOU PEOPLE MAD? Stand on a frozen lake and jog around in circles, and DONT fall...come on people. These guys probably leave a review for Nike.."My Nikes are just not good in the ice, I fell." If you need a tire for ICE, 1. you live in an igloo. 2. get ones with metal studs in them for heavens sake, better yet, DONT DRIVE ON ICE!! IF YOU DO, MAYBE YOU SHOULD SLOW DOWN!!! "These tires were scary on ice." NO S***! Maybe you could adapt you vehicle to run on ICE SKATES! Or build a tire out of an ERECTOR SET! again...ITS ICE!! I...C...E... There not Toyo Open Country ICE/Ts..Did you invent the "CAUTION, SLICK ICE AHEAD" sign? YES ICE IS SLICKKKKKK...AHHHHHH MY BRAINNNNNNN...i could go on...but I wont.
