Tires Toyo or Uniroyal
I use Uniroyal. Very competitively priced, and great quality for normal use.
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
Uniroyal Rainexpert 5.
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.
The tires are Uniroyal Tiger Paw Ice and Snow 3 and the sizes are 205/55R16 91T. These tires have only been used for one winter season and are in very good shape.
Uniroyal is a great tire for the money. they are not the best in any one category but good across the board. I've had them on many cars over the years and had zero real complaints for the price.
They are decent. I’ve ran the AS 4, Proxes and also the Extreme Contact DWS before. I would call the AS 4 and Extreme Contacts a tier 1 All Season tire, and the Proxes tier 2. The Proxes aren’t bad by any means but the dry grip isn’t on the same level as the other two especially at colder temperatures.
those toyos are widely regarded as poor tires, they ride quiet when they're new but very shortly they get loud and the grip is pretty bad and any sort of inclement weather even just rain.
It was a terrible experience on stock suspension: extremely stiff, sluggish from standstill, and my mpg took a drastic hit. On one tank I went from averaging about 16.8 mpg to 13.5.
I ended up getting them switched out for the C load tires (255/75r17) and had a MUCH better experience. They drive nearly identical to the stock tires , mpg is back to low 16, and the ride has softened up.
