Toyo MT tires, good, bad?

Okay so my dads truck needs new tires, I also need a set, makes for a total of 10 tires we need. But which ones? We looked at many and have came down to either the procomp A/T or the Toyo MT.

Anybody have good luck with the Toyo's? Any balancing issues? Are they wearing right? Good road manners and not to much noise?

I am running the Toyo's..They look great but are a little harder than the tires I took off so the ride isn't as nice.
They do perform really well in the snow and are quiet on the highway which is surprising

So pretty much verdict so far is they're great tires?

Sounds like they're going forever tread wise, the Truxus STS tires he has now have 10,000 and have only 20% left.

go with the toyos, theyre the best as far as wear goes for mud tires.... an any super swamper tire you get isnt gonna have long tread wear, the SSRs have decent wear but still short lived in comparsion to toyo or nitto mud tire
