toyo open country m/t tread wear?

junge61 · 07-26-2009, 02:03 AM

how hard is the rubber in these tires? i currently have parnelli jones dirt grips and have about 10k miles and they are pretty much bald and i had the nitto mud grapplers before and they were a little better got about 20k out of them but they were dangerously bald and im wanting 37x13.50x20 but the only kind i can find are the toyo open country m/t and wondering if they would last very long. thanks

Just looking at these today on the net, 35x12.50x17's look very nice and have a load range E. Where is the best place to buy them and how many miles should I expect to get out of them driving mostly on the highway without a load? I have BFG AT's and they are going fast on my Ram but used to last forever on my Toyota's. Guess the extra weight kills them quick.

I have 32K on mine. Only rotated them once at 24K. I still have way more tread than the almost new Nitto all terrains I have on my other truck. Lots of towing, jobsite and highway miles on them. Hope this helps.

Where can I buy a set? I always like to get the road hazard but no one local sells them.

A guy in my neighborhood made a roundtrip run from San Diego to Honduras in an '03 3500 CTD with Toyo 35-12.50-17's pulling an 8,000# Toyhauler. He's got 28,000 on them now and they look like he'll get a safe 10,000 more miles out of them. He had them rotated in Central America somewhere,but other than that,zero maintenance. No flats either and he had to reduce the psi to 6# once to get out of a situation.

I love mine. 3rd set for me as well. I get about 35k out of them and only rotate when I remember. I also tow 10k everyday with them.
