Toyo Open Country AT's??

I saw these at a tire store this week, and they looked bad.
Since Im going to have to replace my tires soon, what do you think of these as a choice.

30x9.5x15's
Tire Barn quoted me $430 for all 4, incl. mounting, bal, etc.

Seems like a good deal.

I know this pic doesnt show it well, but the tread design has a very sporty AT style to it. Seems like it would get decent traction (at least much better than these Michelins I have on now), and they had nice thick stiff sidewalls.

I own a set and I like them. That is a good price, too.

Good tires so far with only about 250 miles on mine.

I bought my truck with a fresh set already on. I was told they had only 5k miles on them when I bought the truck so they have roughly 15k on them now. I have no real complaints about them. The tread looks somewhat aggressive yet they aren't noisy.

Of course I would love to upgrade to Goodyear MT/R s
and run these in the winter months.

here's a pic

I bought some about 5,000 miles ago..Had to replace my NEW POS BFG AT's...But the Toyos are great. They are my street tires...but do awesome in snow, ice, light trail. They wear awesome. Both my parents have them on their rigs, a 4runner and a big block burb...and they think they are great too.

i'd have to say that they look like any other rig tire. I'd go for some bigger tread tires like Wild Country RVT tracs or TXR
