Tires Toyo or Firestone
The Toyos are a really decent tire, and fairly quiet for what they are.
I switched from general grabbers to Toyo open country at3s. I like the toyos a lot more. They're smoother and quieter
Has the same size General Grabbers and when getting a new set, went with Toyo Open Country A/T III. They’ve been fantastic, only had them on for a month but can notice they bite a little quicker off roads, around the same road noise on tarmac, and look great.
As soon as my stock tires got worn out I purchased the Toyos. They were pretty expensive, but I guess all bigger tires cost $$$. I also had to get them shipped to Oahu. I do notice when I drive that shifting is a little slower, but not sure if it’s related to computer not recognizing the bigger tires size. I guess time to invest in a Tazer or Jscan?
On my second set of toyos had AT2 over 100k now on AT3 as they redesigned tread pattern Priced very good to compared to other brand I was quoted on when looking ie upto $450 a tyre these were $310 265/65/17 Prado 120
My wife bought a car from carvana and i noticed on delivery that the tires were at the wear bars. Took it to Firestone, they filed a claim with SR on the spot and had new tires in a couple of hours. Can’t complain about that.
Just got the Toyo Open Country RT Trails in LT 315 70R 17. Replaced my well worn Toyo AT IIs. They’re on my ‘17 JKU with 4 inch lift. I can tell you I hear no discernible difference from the AT IIs which had very little road noise either. The RTs feel great and look even better. I’ve not had them in the dirt yet but on pavement they’re excellent. I love them.
Firestone Indy 500
I would recommend just outright avoiding Firestone. Aside from Firestone tires being garbage (except the Transforce line)
I have a vendetta against Firestone since they exploded on my Explorer and nearly wrecked me, only had like 10k miles.
