Tires Toyo or Continental
My Benz\u2019s all run Continental DWS 06+ and stay at the house if roads are too bad.
I've been riding Toyo Open Country AT3's on my taco for 4 years and they do great in the snow/ice.
Got some new Toyo Open Country.A/T 3s for the new truck. Way better look and seem to perform well in the snow and ice so far.
If you want something cheaper but still sticky, the Toyo R1R also comes in 205/45/16 and works great for spirited street driving.
just put on a “new” old set of conti trail king tires on my mtb that where in my garage for 3-4 years and by a window and they are fine. Been on some black diamond and rock trails with nothing going wrong…
I was doing a ride last year in 3 year old GP5000S and completely cleaned my bike, tires, rims, etc. It looked spotless, my wife came home, saw the bike on the stand and asked if I bought new tires.
I'm having the Continental VikingContact 8 on my Mazda, must say I am really happy. They are super communicative in what's happening under the car.
The Toyo would be your best bet since the Bridgestone are being discontinued but if you find a set, they'll be a better price than the Toyo.
If I'm reading this date code correctly, these Toyos are approaching 6 years old. This makes sense as they are pretty noisy, could stand to be grippier and the rubber just does not feel very pliable. So I need to ditch these for some new all-seasons.
The continentals on my moms car started doing this, I have no idea why as well but they needed to be replaced anyway.
