Tires Toyo or BRIDGESTONE
I just bought the Toyo AT3 EVs earlier this week and I love them. Look great, haven’t noticed road noise and can’t wait for winter snow in these tires.
Got the Toyos a couple months ago. I'm averaging 4.0 km/kWh (2.5 mi/kWh), so it seems like they're pretty efficient!
True that, I also had Alnac 4G tyres then changed to Yokohama Blue Earth they offered great performance however the noise suppression wasn't much, slightly better if only, but they offered really good grip.
Now changed to Bridgestone Turanza 6i and they are extremely silent, no noise at all, wind noise is audible only after crossing 80kmph. Although grip was they are more or less same as Yokohama Bluearth.
But these are expensive paid 11.5k for each tyre - 205/55/16 size.
I’ve found Toyo holds up the best…..with the exception of the Toyo m/t I don’t know what kind of fairy dust they put in those but they are the longest lasting m/t I’ve ever seen on heavy trucks….my dad has a set on his 250 and pulls a camper and 14k pound trailer/tractor and this set is at 60k with about 10-15k left in them
On my 3rd set of Toyo A/Ts between 2 different rigs. Long tread life, 40k min. Quiet comfortable ride. Works well in all conditions, sand/mud/rocks. I won't run anything else.
I have Toyo r/t trails and they’ve been awesome so far
I bought a set of Bridgestone Weatherpeak tires from Costco for around $700. They're three peak snowflake rated and are quiet. They do well for me in the PNW.
Mine came with the same Bridgestones. They were ok, had decent grip. I replaced them with Pilot Sport 4Ss which seem a little quieter and softer-riding.
I have the crappy toyo tires and am actually shopping around for better tires.
However I think the biggest factor is these Toyo tires simply are not good tires. They are noisey. I am getting WAY to much noise on highway. Over 36 they are to stiff and noisey, they actually "howl" and even at 35 these Toyo just seem iffy.
