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.

35 x 12.5 on 17 rims. Used for 3 years on daily driver & offroad 07 Rubicon. I air down to 12 psi when it's mostly rocks, 10 psi for mostly mud. 30 psi for roads.
Very happy with them. It often happens that another vehicle in a group struggles on an upslope of loose dirt or mud then my rig just walks up. They are about as noisy as the stock Rubicon tires.
No complaint about performance in snow on pavement. The street behind my house has a steep grade that I've towed other vehicles up in snow storms. I don't use lockers in snow, let the vehicle's antiskid system do its thing instead.
Tried hard to get it to skid on an ice covered parking lot and they held for almost all maneuvers.
Not happy about the price but glad I made the investment.

Had a set on my F-350 Powerstroke. They were smooth and quiet on the road with great wet road traction. They did awesome in the snow and mud as well. The mileage I got out of mine was fantastic for a mud-terrain tire considering the extra weight of a heavy diesel truck. When I sold the truck, I had logged about 25k miles and they were still above 50% tread left. I've gotten over selling the truck, but man, I wish I still had those tires!

I can push snow with my front bumper when new. Worked great in mud but melted away with a load. Tires balanced easy but drove funny for first 1000 miles. I went through 2 sets and liked them but for the price they should get over 25000 miles. Just went out and bought a set of Coopers Discovery tires, to much money for Toya, I may be giving up a little traction for wear, don't know yet.

Pros:

Easy to get. Les Schwab keeps tons of them in stock. Overall a decent tire, but they do have significant issues.
|
|
Cons:
|
Expensive for their lack of long-term value. Consistent (twice monthly) off-road use and time cause these tires to disintegrate. Toyo will not stand behind their defectiveness.

As a professional field biologist, hunter, horseman, and avid off-roader I've used almost every off-road tire conceivable over the past 40 years. I literally log tens of thousands of miles annually in every conceivable terrain across Nevada using multiple vehicles. A friend convinced me to try these unfortunately. I found that these tires are just okay, but literally have a shelf life. If you don't get your first 20K miles off of them within 24 to 36 months they literally fragment into nano pieces at the first sign of rocks, and neither Toyo or Les Schwab care as it won't fall into any road hazard category. Never used spares waiting for their turn into the rotation literally disintegrate leaving the user stranded. I wish I could attach photos to show you guys how bad these things decompose. Anyway, you can do a lot better for the price. As for us (professionally & personally) we won't patronize either company ever again. Best of luck out there!

Great tire. I've had through mud, hills, rocks and snow, especially this past winter. For all the nay sayers on snow and ice...learn to drive. You can't expect any tire to give you off road traction on snow and ice. Go buy a pair of chains or metal studded tires if that's what you're looking for. I've put almost 15K on the tires and only have 1/8" of wear. Slight hum on road, but still do great at 80mph. Lastly, my JK Wrangler looks great with the 35x12.5x18 Toyo's and can back it up. Hooah!

Put these tires (35/12.5r17) on an 06 Megacab dodge at 48k miles and am still running them at 107k miles, I figure they will last this winter. Anybody that complains that they wear out too fast is not rotating them, I do oil Changes every 8k miles and rotate them then! And I DRIVE my truck!!!

Excellent, quiet ride, good wear
|
|
Cons:
|
Price, weight of tires
|

Have 37 x 13.5 x 20 on my 2008 Ford F-350 (4' Suspension Lift). At almost 100 lbs per tire, it does add weight to the Truck. Put almost 70000 km on them. All highway mileage. Rotated every oil change (8000 km) and kept pressure at 65 Psi. Excellent handling on highway and no pull. Have had even wear on all 4x tires. As per previous comments, ice traction is good...not like a true winter tire "BLIZZAK", but it is an M/T tire. I would highly recommend them.

harder compound

Very tough, long lasting,I beat on these tires all the time. About 4 months out of the year averaging over 1000 miles off road. The other months a couple hundred. If they are siped they do much better on the snow and icy roads. For those of you complaining about those conditions you obviously bought the tire for the wrong reasons and don't know squat about tires. I rated a 9 because of flexability and harder tread. But that is the result of a longer lasting tire. If these tires are wearing out quick on you, you have a heavy foot, or something is wrong with your truck, or you are not caring for the tires, OR all of the above.

Been running 265/75/16's on 2008 wrangler for 2 years now, and they are a great addition to the jeep. 35000 km's on them and no sign of tread wear. Traction in all kinds of weather has been great. Lots of people bash these tires in the winter, but I've put them through 2 tough northern winters and find them great in all conditions. No tire is good on ice, but with a little bit of driver skill these tires will serve almost any purpose. Wouldn't hesitate to buy them again, or recommend them. They are a little noisy, which is to be expected, and they are a bit heavy which hits the fuel efficient around town. Again, to be expected.
