While we're asking about tires...

Anyone have a set of Toyo Open Coutnry M/Ts to me they look like a siped MT/R knockoff. They run about the same price as an MT/R but I'm thinking of giving them a shot

There are a TON of these driving around in the Pacific Northwest now, especially on the full size trucks. But when I asked a guy running these on his TJ (35's) how he liked them, he said he didn't like them at all. Complained that they tended to slide sideways and generally sucked for wheeling. Haven't encountered them on the trail again since.

Cool, thanks for the update.

From my web searching, I've seen a lot of full size truck reports on them, but nothing for how we use them.

Wonder what this guy was comparing them to? I'd imagine that a Interco style tire would work better out there than the Toyo.

I'm still trying to figure out what to use.
