The New (Toyo Open Country R/T Trail) Tire UPDATE!

B MIller

Posted a video recently updating my thoughts on this new tire from Toyo. I must say, it's been a pleasure having them and want to give everyone my updated thoughts. Enjoy!

Thanks for the update! Love the pattern and are on my short list for replacements. Do you happen to know the weight difference and has your gas mileage suffered?

You bet, here's the spec sheet for the tires. They're 68 pounds. Not bad! I can't speak for mileage since I have so much crap bolted onto the Bronco I wouldn't know the different anyway :)

Just looked up the stock squatch tires and they are 52lbs and the BFG T02s are 64lbs. I suppose the D rating and the extra weight go hand and hand although the BFGs are C rated like the stock tires. Seems the Goodyears are one heck of a light tire.

Agreed, the Goodyears are very light. If I remember correctly, the Nittos were in the 70 pounds plus range. These tires fall right in the middle in regards to weight.
