Toyo Open Country AT 245/70/16 $109 per tire

All-

Just wanted to give a little review of these tires.. I have them on my CJ5 and a couple buddies have them on their vehicles so I figured I would give it a shot. Back in May I got a good deal on them for my CJ at $110 a piece for the 265/75/15 and he got me $109/per for the 245/70/16 (465 out the door) after quoting me $144/per ($610 OTD)! All I had to do was show him the receipt from the other tires.

The only problem is that he broke two of my TPMS sensors, so I have to go buy them and have him put them on. About 50 bucks a pop from what I have found.

I wish I would have gone wider... not sure if I can, but they don't rub at full lock pulling up my driveway.

Driving to work today was a good test, it was raining... it was weird not having to use 4x4 to accelerate from a stop light. Good traction and 50K mileage warranty... Now all I need is an alignment and I will be all set!

If anyone is looking at these tires and wants a copy of the receipt for price matching purposes, let me know.

Open Country whats? ATs or HTs, since the MT's don't come in that size.

Where is the best place to order the Toyo's?

Best place to buy? Do you have a Les Schwab?

I don't really like mine after a year and a half. They are much better than the OEM's for durability but they were not good in the snow and ice, not even as good and the OEM's.

I wished I could have gotten mine that cheap. I run 285/75/16's, they were $185 per tire. Luckily I got a good deal on a set with chrome rims for $700 shipped to the door. So far I've really liked them, one of the better tires I've had in a bigger size. Doubt mine will last 50k though, the fronts feather on the edge, even with an alignment and 3k rotation.

That's not good to hear. I'm debating between the Toyo A/T and the Michelin LTX A/T2. I'm mainly needing a good tire to tow my travel trailer with but yet something that will let me off-road and air down. I've read that the TOYO is great for highway, towing, and off-road. And I've read reviews that the Michelins are good on the highway, towing, off-road, and snow and ice. But the price difference is ponderous. :shock:
