time to get new tires have bfg all terrian 315 70 17 now , but need alittle more aggressive tire at times , but drive on alto of packed snow ice . i am looking at going to toyo mt 295 70 17 , has anyone had the tires siped to increase packed snow and ice traction .

 

toyo all the way. that is my next tire after these pro comps wear out

edit: never had a problem with the pro comps in the snow/ice. had about 800 lbs of stuff in the bed this winter in Idaho.

 

Toyos!
I loved my 325/70/17 Open Country ATs, and when these 37s wear out ill be getting a set of 37" Toyo MTs...

 

I just bought toyos BUT only because the size I went to is not available in the Hercules Terra Tracs I've been running. In 20+ years of 4X4s, that is one of the most impressive tires I have ever run.

Toyos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will have gotten over 50k on both sets of mine!!!

 

Toyos for sure! Second set of Toyo MTs that i have had on my trucks and never had a problem! Work great in the mud from my experience!

 

In my experience, the BFG's have lasted longer than my Toyo's. I'll go with something other than Toyo's next time.

 

luvnacumns , you have gotten of 50,000 on each set , if so thats great got about 65,000 out of bfg at , but i need alitte more aggresive tread . its hard to find a got mileage answer because of different drving styles , i had 85,000 out of factory michliens never rotated .

 

I just got rid of BFG's with about 12K on them and about half the tread left. Won't get another set of them as that's the 4th set on various trucks that have not performed as advertised. Maybe I'm just a slow learner but I did replace them with Toyo's this time. I would dearly love to know how some folks are getting so many miles out of their tires on these trucks. I rotate every 5K or less and never get what some people are talking about, not even close.

My take is Toyo AT's and use chains if it gets bad enough that they won't get you through. MT's wear awfully fast if you drive on the pavement very much.

 

32k and just under 1/2 tread on those Hercules I mentioned - easy 60k mile tire. Pretty aggressive tread for an AT but quiet at the same time.

 

You need more agressive tread...for what??? Snow...

MT's (mud terrain's) work best in the mud not snow.

AT's on street driven trucks do better in the snow then MT's.

I love my toyo MT's and have 32K hard and abused miles on them.

I had 315 BFG AT's on my last truck and it did alot better in the snow then my Toyo MT's. With my bfg I could go off road in the deep snow but with my MT's I stay on the snow covered highway.

I knew this but I didnt care because I wanted the agressive look of toyo MT, it just so sexy compared to the boring old BFG.

So if you want the look and attitude of a MT then get the toyo's but dont expect them to perform like the bfg's did in the snow.
