Ended up going in a completely different direction. Found the Toyo Open County AT2 for 20% off, making it significantly cheaper. Couldn't say no given the price.
Currently running Bridgestone RE760 Sports. Classified as "Ultra High Performance" I have found them to be a great summer tire on a DD.
i have the toyo m/t's. they're 37x13.5 r17 and they ride super smooth. you can definitely hear them a little bit but they are the least noisey m/t tires i've owned. i've also been told by multiple shops / people that i have one of the smoothest riding lifted trucks they've ever driven. so that says something about these tires. i'd personally recommend them
Absolute best grip in that size will be the Bridgestone Potenza RE71-R. That would be the 'autocross special' tire. It's a 200 treadwear rated tire, so it's legal in the SCCA Street classes, but it's very soft and extremely grippy.
Been using 225/45R-17 Bridgestone Blizzak WS80's...they have been great last 2 winters.
I have a set of 265/30/R18 Bridgestone RE71Rs I autocross them and daily drove them for a while. But pricey but worth it for performance. I've heard people refer to these as one step down from slicks
I agree, very quiet compared to my Bridgestone Ecopia 422 plus H, better traction wet and dry...better handling too. Expansion joint crossings are quieter than my Bridgestones as well.
Get some Blizzak's from Costco while they are on sale. They have been a huge upgrade on my Mazda.
I got about 6 tracks days from my RE-71R tires last season. They were great for about the first 15 minutes, but fell off after that. They also got shredded pretty quickly.
I'm fixing to put the 5th pair of tires on the rear......and the fronts aren't going to be too far behind. The car has only 32,000 miles on it. Toyo's. They are wearing flat, no cupping, but wearing fast.
