Toyo m/t's installed

[wfd175]

Just got my 285/75/16 Toyo M/t's installed over the weekend. Thanks for everyone's input.

I paid 215.00 installed per tire with a road hazard warranty. They are surpisingly quiet, extremely smooth, handle great. Of course, that's what I expected based on everyone's input. I coupld have got them for 183.00 per tire on the internet. But I thought if I had any problems it would be easier to go back to the dealer.

The dealer has mounted a number of these before and is always suprised how well they balance out.

Oh, and by the way, they also look great on the L.C.


I'll post pictures tonight.

If you would not mind could you post the website you could have gotten them from for that price?

Congrats!

What lift are you running? The Toyo's will probably be my next set of tires -- big decision is 285/305's or 315's.

www.tiredeals4less.com. If you go deeper into this website, you end up at a tirestore website in Chicago. When I called to check on shipping I talked to this dealer in Chicago, and they asked me the price and which site I was on so they could charge me correctly.

Just stick with the tiredeals4less. Be prepared when you call though. The shipping for 5 to missouri was only 70.00. (from chicago of course)

NOt running a lift yet, but I'm going to go heavy front and med rear when I do the lift at Christmas. I goofed around the farm down in the creek bed on some rocks and didn't having any rubbing at stock height. With an arb'd front end sittin stinkbug.

One thing I think people forget is the 315 Toyo MTs are really heavy.78 lbs each when new. My mileage dropped right away when switching from 315 BFGs. I still like them. But I'm at about half tread now. They are a little noisier than they were when new. I also have some significant chunking. But that is pretty typical for the lava rock we run on Idaho.

Unlifted, stinkbug.

I'd say I have about 17k on them without looking at the receipt. If I get 35k out of them I'll be happy. I beat the snot out of them. Our lava rocks eat tires for breakfast. That was one nice thing about running BFGs I never had to worry about wearing a set out. I'd rip a sidewall and have a roadhazard and new tire prior to getting to half tread. I haven't had anything puncture these yet. There are other locals who have been running them on fullsized rigs longer than I have and nobody has tore a sidewall yet.

Those really are sweet looking tires. I'm looking forward to "field testing" the ones I just put on!

I think these are my next tires on the 80 - anybody got a street noise comparison to MTRs? I've been happy with these, but they sure have gotten noisy as they've worn I haven't ripped a sidewall though ... more than I can say for my last set of BFG MTs.

Those Toyo's sure are some sexy tires ...

I've had the goodyear TD's, BFG All-Terrains, Cooper Discoverers. Even though the Toyo's are new, they became quieter at 70 on the interstate than they are at 55 on the Hwy. That harmonic/echoing hum isn't there either like with the wrangler td's. I rode in my buddy's landrover with MTR's now it has BFG M/t's and it's louder than hell and has that annoying harmonic, echoey type noise at all speeds that gets worse as you speed up.
