I was concerned about the ride too. They feel better than my worn out BFG ATs though. Good, solid ride, not harsh and surprisingly quiet. Sorry, 35's here, not 37's.

That is good to hear. Tires are such a big non-returnable purchase that it helps to hear personal accounts.

toyos have a 45 day/500 mile return policy if you are not happy for any reason. it even covers mounting balancing costs so its a no brainer.

That is a pretty nice assurance. If I get these, I will hang on to my MTRs and not sell them till I am sure the RTs will work for me. The main thing is the weigh/stiffness and the conforming off road. I generally run 12 PSI and the MTRs conform extremely well and ride soft. I don't like going much below (and never below 10) for fear of slipping a bead off the rim, and I hear that the Toyo MTs don't conform as well and some guys go into the single digits. This RT seems a bit lighter and possibly softer.

glad i saw this thread, looking at going 37s and wanted a more street friendly tire than the KM2s i am running now. looking forward to seeing more reviews on the tire, especially on trails/mud.

I just ordered mine 35/13.50R20 They are actually 34.8" diameter inflated I got to try the cooper discoverer st maxx 12.50's nice very smooth and quiet. But like the 13.50's better. I'll post more pics once I get the RT's installed this Friday Cooper discoverer st maxx. 35x12.50R20 Click image for larger version

I run my 35/12.5-17 toyo's at2's at 14psi off road and could go lower but they conform very well and are smooth. I think they are built on the same carcass.
