Man,

I think the whole tire debate is like which do you prefer? Blonds, Brunettes, Redheads?


Find a GOOD quality tire, fits you budget, and go with it.


My only recommendation is to stay away from Khumo.


Never had a set of Toyo, but people like 'em here.

I'm a fan of BFG and will probably stick with them.


Goodyear MTR/K seem to have a good rep, I was never a fan of the old Goodyear MTR (more like an All-terrain tire if ya ask me)


Anyways, go with what you like, looks good, and gets good reviews.

For the most part, most all M/T tires will perform close to the same. They will wear out differently though.

I can say that a set of the stock BFG's on the Rubicon will last at least 40,000 miles. I have half tread and have 27,000 miles on mine.

I've heard a lot of good things about the Open Country tires, just wondering how they perform versus the GY duratracs or the Nitto mud or trail grapplers. The Nittos are lighter and still have an aggressive tread.

I'm mainly concerned with wet, icy or snowy roads since all of these perform well offroad.

Here is what 37" Toyo's can do ...... ok I didn't get it pulled out, but it was awesome to have all four tires throwing snow.



This day there was 2' of snow and the jeep was unstoppable, any snow bank any place I wanted to go, there was no question. Pull many people out and had on issues. This is my second set of the MT's others were the 285's. Only downside is they are heavy. On the positive side they are pretty quiet and really long wearing.

love my toyo's the wear on them has been exceptional hardly wearing at all in about 20 000kms. yes they are heavy and expensive but the best tire out there IMO

Toyo's are great tires. Their main downside is price and weight. The MT/R with Kevlar is a lighter tire. So it will put less stress on your drive train.

And I have not personly owned the MT/R w/Kevlar yet, but the tight tread spacing on the center section should provide better wet and snow traction then most mud tires.

I have 35 inch Toyos, They are already siped are the 37s not siped

The toyos suck when it is really slick, like snow over ice or just icy roads. Everything else I like them. I almost have 40k on mine and bet I will get another 10k. I think I will try mtr's or duratracs next for better snow performance.

Then why is the guy at American Tire saying he siped Toyos. Run away from that Tire store.

Stuka

Because the stock siping is very limited. Adding a proper level of siping greatly increases traction.
