🟦32,000 Mile Update | Tackle Tough Terrain with Toyo Open Country R/T Trail Tires 

I know you mentioned how you wish they made a 11.50, they do it's a 285/75R17. However it's a 34"x11.50" load E tire, just bought a set for my Tacoma and love smooth they are compared to the Toyo MT I had prior.

I think the biggest misconception everyone has with Hybrid style AT tires is their expectations with wet roads. You’re getting that harder MT rubber compound with a AT style tread. Just my opinion. I’ve had two set of Ridge Grapplers and I knew before purchasing that the tires were a harder rubber.

Perfect video. To the point, and it hit on everything important. Thanks.

Have you noticed any dry rot? I have a little over 10k on my RTs, and am noticing the start of dry rot on all 4 corners on my Tacoma (285 75 r16 E Load)

I purchased a set of these tires for my 2015 4runner in a 285/70/17 mounted on a set of Method 703 wheels. First real test was a road trip to Vermillion Cliffs area of northern AZ last March. Encountered quite a bit of peanut butter like mud on House Rock Rd and lots of snow on the road into White Pocket. Tires handled great in all of those conditions. There is a noticeable hum white driving but it's not as bad as the Toyo MTs I had on a FJ Cruise I previously owned. I also just finished a long road trip to the PNW from SoCal and I'm very happy with the road manners of these tires. Thanks again for producing these tire review videos. I feel a series of reviews over a long period of time adds a ton of value instead of the typical "I just bought these tires and I think they're great".

I have a 23 Bronco Black Diamond with the 2.7 and went with the 285/75r17 with is actually the same height as the factory Sasquatch “35s” but they are 11.5 wide. Absolutely love them! However be mindful that not all RT trails are D rated. Mine are E as well as the 35x12.5r17. The 315/70r17 is as you know D rated, I actually like that they made this tire in 2 different ratings for the guys with trucks that are going to tow and etc 👍🏻

Got a set on 17 x 9- 37" on a Jeep Wrangler rubicon. Just did the Rubicon trail and got rain on the ride out, so Cadillac Hill and it was wet and sloppy as we were at the rear of the pack. Aired down to 17 psi. and have to say I was throughly impressed. Slippage was almost nonexistent. There were places that I figured they would let me down, but they clawed up them and over snotty slick boulders and never let me down. They had about 5k on them as the jeep is also a daily driver. I'm curious about snow and ice handling, so as the winter approaches, I'll update. I'm up in the Tahoe area, so it'll be fun to find out. That being said, I'll say they are, in my opinion, much better than the old KO2s that were on before. The Toyos are a teenie bit louder on the highway, but it matters not at all to me. So as of now I'd buy them again. Thumbs up so far.

Thanks for the review on these tires. I am all over the place with all these tire options lol, I also very much like the Yokohama Geolandar G003 MTs which are also D rated and very light at 76lbs for a Mud Terrain 37X12.50R17 tire size. Their true measurement is 36.8X13.1 which if you like the wide look is awesome for the 76lb weight.

So I don’t know if they just don’t make them where you are but I’ve been price shopping and they make a 35x11.50r20 here where i am. Idk if they have sense then but may look around and see if you can find some.

I think would be good to try it in high elevation, twisty and icy condition if you haven't and send the feedback to Toyo. This is the only worry I have with this tire. Toyo ATIII which I run today is relatively good in this condition but lacking grip in the trails, puncture resistance (I punctured at least 2 tires in 10K miles) and desert running.

Off road pressures of 28 psi?.....honestly, try dropping them down to no more than 18 psi for the type of terrain you're showing in the video. Your tires will thank you as you will actually protect the tire's carcass and sidewall plus you'll have even better off road performance. The bigger the tire, the less air pressure you need to hold up the load and you've got a lot of surface area with those fat 35's.
