Title: Toyo A/T
Post by: huntandjeep on October 24, 2016, 07:24:21 AM: Anyone running them ? I blew out a tire yesterday hunting so now the search is on for new tires. There going on a F350 that is my daily driver and tow a travel trailer on weekends. Any other suggestions ?

Post by: jackelope on October 24, 2016, 07:25:55 AM: I had them on my 1/2 ton for a while. I can't attest to their ability for towing use, but they were great tires for snow, lasted a long, long time and were good on the road too. I want to say I got close to 60k miles out of them.

Post by: elkaholic123 on October 24, 2016, 07:56:11 AM: I have them on a F-150 35x12.50x20, 15,000 miles so far and look great...very quiet and seem to work great off-road :twocents:

have them on my dodge 2500 and tow a 43'toyhauler no issues. the tires are good and they prorate wear for future sets as well ... got mine at Schwabb in Oregon (hood river) during a recent adventure. Saved a bunch in NO TAXES.... just a thought...

Post by: Dale Gribble on October 24, 2016, 10:06:57 AM: Running a set of AT-2's on a 3/4ton flatbed Chevy, haul about 2 cords of wood split on there every time I go wood cutting. Use to haul a heavy ass old camper and never had a problem. Have about 15k on them now. Only minor thing I don't like is the side walls could be stronger but how often does a guy have to drive through a shake rock slide to get to prime tamarack....

Post by: KopperBuck on October 24, 2016, 11:48:17 AM: 3500 Dodge with flatbed running my 2nd pair of AT-2s. Got 50k out of my last set (right at warranty), at least 30k were loaded miles. On the 1st set we lived at the time on a hellacious gravel road, about 3 miles worth. They like to fling rocks. But hauling 5-6 ton of hay, stock trailers jammed with critters, long hauls with horse trailer - to all types of off road conditions I had no issue. Good on the road, fairly quiet. If I still lived on the old road I would have probably moved to the M-55, even if I had to give up some of the freeway conditions. Good all around tire.

I have BFG's on it now. Yesterday a sidewall blew out today softball size bubble appeared on a different tire. Sitting @ Schwab's now waiting on the Toyo's.

Post by: spoonman on October 24, 2016, 08:04:35 PM: I have them on my 07 2500 Cummings and I am not a fan if its wet out or driving in the snow. Good for towing I guess but not any better than other name brand a/t load E tires that I have had.

Spent 10 hours total there sitting around waiting for nothing. Too bad you on BFG failures. I'm sure the toyos are better warranty than bfg? Maybe that's way Toyos are $70 a tire more expensive? Or Les Schwab credit is popular?

That's crazy. I had them on my f 350 psd and after 35k I was scared to drive them in the rain could barely keep in on the road in wet pavement. They were great up to that mileage. No comparison for me. On my second set of bfg km2's. They are great all the way to balding.

With such a wide variety of responses about them I can only guess that maybe they vary in quality alot.

x2. Couldn't get an empty trailer out of the pasture without locking up the hubs. Probably great for folks that don't leave the road system? Currently running Cooper Discoverer STT. So far, so good. Haven't locked the hubs up since. Paid $1400 out the door at S&S for 35x13.5 (metric). Would have paid double just to avoid Les Schwaab :)

I've run a set of 235/16 coopers on my old 98 150 and a different set on my f 350. The cooper 235/16 10 ply were awesome tires. Ran them bald on both trucks
. Never a flat and lots of time on shale and wheeling.
