Tires OEM Mazda or Toyo
My Toyo RTs just passed 45k and are still holding very well
I had a set of Toyo Open Country AT III’s on my truck, 265/75R16 load range C. They made it 72k worth of construction truck use, trailer towing and some light trail use and snow in the PNW winters.
I've had really good luck with the toyo. 98 Toyota tacoma 33s.
If you decide to try another, Toyo Open Country AT3. I love them on my Tundra!
Ie enjoyed Toyo proxy sports
I went with the Toyo Extensa HP II because it was a good compromise on price/efficiency/grip/noise. My biggest complaint with the OEM tires was that they hydroplaned worse than any tire I’ve had on a car since the 80s and these Toyos are much better. Range is down, maybe, 2-5%, maybe more on longer drives at speed, but EVERYTHING else about these tires is leagues better…ride, handling, noise, braking…everything.
Needed tires for my CX-5 and they had these at the shop. So far they are better than the stock Toyo A36.
Toyos and Kumhos have served me well over tens of thousands of miles. Toyo Open Country AT3W and Kumho Crugen HT51. Michelins are known as the best tire for longevity and commuting.
I'm at 7/32 at just under 20k miles on the stock Toyo's. Will likely swap them out this winter for something a bit more snow/ice capable, though they weren't awful this past year.
I run Open Country 3's on my truck, and these tires are just too loud. They do not like the Arizona freeways, highways, and any asphalt road. When I do get on dirt, it is best, but there are too damn loud in my book.
