GOODBYE, AT2... HELLO AT3! – Please see my previous review on these tyres, somewhere in the list above. It's now been over six years and 200,000 Klm on this set. Loved every Klm. Finally today I swapped them for the Toyo Open Country AT3 (as the AT2 is discontinued). Still loads of life left in them but they'd scalloped due to worn shockers, and were getting noisy and… Read more

vibrating a bit. Still, I was reluctant to change them yet and only did so as I'm about to do another trip across Australia. Here's hoping the AT3 are even half as good!

Toyo open country AT ll best tyre for 4x4 and SUV cars – This is the only tyre I have on both my vehicles. I had good hanook tyres on my hilux but they were too noisy on the road so l changed them to toyo open country AT ll, much better now and I get 120,000kms out of a set of tyres. when buying toyo tyres I always check to see if they r made in Japan as l find they r a better quality tyre than the… Read more

ones made in Thailand or Taiwan. Toyo open country AT ll best tyre for medium to large 4x4, SUV cars.

Great tyres for a 4WD. They really last long. Vehicle has mostly been on sealed roads with occasional venture onto beaches and into the forests. Good handling and performance. A bit of a hard ride when pumped up above 38PSI. Deflate to 15 PSI on beaches with loose sand without any problem. Done over 49 000km on them and still have 9mm of tread remaining. I'd definitely buy another set. Show details

Excellent AT tyre – Had these on a PB Challenger standard size LT construction, clocked about 40000kms (75% blacktop) before selling vehicle. I can't speak for the standard construction version of these tyres, only LT. Very quiet considering the tread pattern, and Challengers do let a lot of noise in compared to many 4wds as well. Had full confidence no matter the… Read more

weather or terrain, towed a 2ton trailer across the nullabor and back tyres looked no different to the front.

They barely needed much adj when balancing, if at all at times. Hence they wore evenly, and still looked in great condition at 40k (I've included photos), although I always did 5 tyre rotations at service which would help that.

Also never dropped pressure at all, this was something I wasn't familiar with! Seemed very well constructed to me.

I would recommend these in LT to anyone.

Can't beat them – Have 265/65/17 toyo open country A/T on 07 Hilux, excellant in the wet, especially on a ute. Work well in sand without having to drop below 20psi. Very low road noise, still have coloured lines in tread and only about 10% wear after 35,000klm in 4yrs. Run them on 32psi and excellant ride and handling. Was going to swap to pirrelli for the new LDV Trailrider but will be sticking to my toyo open country. Show details

Getting 4 more fitted tomorrow – I purchased 5 of these for my 80 series just over 4 years ago. They have lasted 86000km so far and the spare hasn’t been needed. 80% has been city commuting and open highway bitumen, but these tyres have got me onto gnarly off-road gravel and mud on country holidays including massive acreage mountain and valley properties where you’re allowed to… Read more

camp anywhere your vehicle can access. I believe they have another 10000km or more in them, but as I’m starting another big road trip next week with guaranteed off-road , (but not full on 4x4 monster-your-car like you see on you-tube); as per title I’m replacing them tomorrow at Tyrepower Currumbin. Only mentioning names as in my locale they were easiest to deal with by far .( The original set purchased in Newcastle at O’Neill’s Tyres) On city and highway bitumen the they have given complete confidence in the wet. On bush gravel/washout/ corrugations of all types, same . Maybe the 80 series performance helps but its like you’re on train tracks. Bush bashing wet or dry I have never had a problem and though I can’t comment on sand performance I doubt my confidence in these tyres would be disappointed. I intend to check sand out some time with the replacement set I’m getting tomorrow. I like that they are made in Japan. Highly recommend.

Outstanding on and off road tyre – I put a set of Open Country AT2s on my 2009 diesel Pajero after a set of BFG KOs. The KOs were 85-90% worn and the rubber was hardening, slippery in the wet but no complaints otherwise. Have now got over 42,000km on the Toyos and couldn’t be happier. I have towed a bit, taken them through deep mud, very steep rocky tracks and most surfaces in… Read more

between through the NSW and Victorian high country. On the same tracks the Toyos absolutely ate my last brand even though it is suggested the Toyos are 80% on and 20% off road whilst BFG KOs are rated 50/50 on and off road. They are reasonably quiet on road, running around 36psi, down to 20psi in the really hard stuff. Towing a 2T van I raise the pressure to 38-40. With over 42,000km they aren’t even one quarter worn (wearing evenly) with 2 rotations so far. User reviews commonly cite well over 100k per set. So with outstanding on and off road performance and incredible mileage these are the only other tyre I will buy in future with maybe one exception, Toyo RTs if I can afford them.

These tyres are the best I have used – I bought a Landcruiser 200 Series in 2013 to travel with our Off Road Caravan and cannot speak more highly on how these tyres have performed in all environments.. Having been put off buying the original Toyo Open Country AT due to a myriad of issues, I was really sceptical changing my Coopers but glad I did. What a tyre the Open Country II are.… Read more

Done just over 100,000 kms and only recently had to change the rears due to cutting one of the tyres due to metal package strapping being left on the road. Necessitated buying 2 new tyres and changing the used fronts to the rear and the brand newies to the front and the older left over tyre to the spare wheel carriers to balance up the towing stability. Here we are 15 months down the track and the old rears have now done 140000kms and still going hard but due for change in approx 3-4 months. We have travelled from Perth to Bathurst V8s and return three times now, used the vehicle on soft beach sand, sharp hard rocky roads and on central desert rolling sand hills and these things just keep going. Having owned numerous 4x4's over 30 years fitted with Desert Duellers, Coopers, Dunlop Grand Treks and Bridgestone A/T's, the Toyo Open County II have been well ahead in all environments. I wouldn't buy any other 4x4 tyre now.

The best wearing tyre I've experienced – I needed a set of tyres on my Nissan Patrol prior to leaving for a road trip around Aus towing an off road van. The Toyo Open Country was recommended. I subsequently had them fitted. First set did 90,000.00 Klm. second set is on now and has already passed the 90,000.00 Klm milestone. Couldn't be happier. Show details

Longevity 10/10 – Drive a D-Max put a set of Toyo A/T on January 2018 still on same vehicle we have approx 120.000 TOYO klms these tyres are rotated at every 10.000k service we tow a van. For us these tyres have represented the best value Dollar$ & klm wise. We primarily do bitumen running with a bit of exploring down the country tracks or national parks. Show details

Ok not great – First at tyres I owned Colorado 4x4 . Were not noisy ,ute handled as it should, 95% on road driving . Didn't affect fuel consumption , good traction in wet wore even and once they hit approx 65k and 4 years old they turned absolutely dangerous in the wet on road . Miles of tread left evenly over every tyre , just the compound went off . Took them… Read more

off the car too I reckon they would have driven on with legal tread for 150 plus . Maybe a good tyre if your doing high km just unlike the anzacs age does weary them . Quickly

Great off road... not bad in the dry... absolutely terrible in the wet – It was recommended by retailer as the best option for our use... (mostly road with occasional offroad). Being that wet weather is the most dangerous for high centre of gravity 4x4s we found on our Jeep TJ it's a complete opposite to its dry capability. It may be a factor that the Jeep is relatively lightweight compared to others and not enough… Read more

downward pressure.... but when the front end slides around in a RWD Vehicle on round abouts at 20km/h something ain't right.

We can't use the vehicle when it rains. Feels too dangerous.

Constant vibration – Had these fitted 5 months ago, still chasing a vibration/ balance issue. Have been rebalanced 6 times already, going back to the tyre shop for another go in a few days. Been all over the vehicle suspension for issues, fitted all new shocks, checked wheel bearing preload and steering rack preload. Thought maybe a problem with the new wheels (17x9… Read more

Hussla Beretta), so just had a new set of 17x8 ROH Trophy wheels fitted. Still has front and rear vibration above 90 km/h, and the handling feels vague. No vibration or balance issues with the stock wheels and 65k km old Hankook AT-m tyres. I just can't recommend them.

Not generally a tyre fan, but – I bought a set of Toyos 18 months ago and have done 60,000km+. I live rurally, but do long bitumen kms and some offroad, including snow. Despite the comforting "roar" of the rubber hitting the road, which means there's some serious grip happening, the value for money, longevity and performance of the tyre is excellent, especially in snow. I have… Read more

tried other tyres and the Toyos struggle less on the rear of a BT50 in ice and rain, to keep a grip. I will definitely replace them with another set.

Best tyre i've ever had ! – My current set of ATIIs have so far lasted 65k of about 45% dirt (live and work in mostly rural and remote areas). They are close to needing replacing which given the rough treatment they have received is very good compared to the previous Cooper Sts set I had which performed very poorly. The Toyos have not excessively chipped or worn unevenly.… Read more

Grip on low and high speed dirt roads has been great and on wet tarmac they perform very predictably with no scares to date, no punctures either, these tyres are tough. My next set of tyres will most definitely be the Toyos again.

Great Tyre so far – Just purchased these tyres today21/1/21. On a Trailblazer 265/60R18. Original factory tyres had 90000kms. It's early days so far but they handle really well and very quiet. Will update review when a decent amount of ks are done. Hoping to get decent mileage from these.Now travelled about 45000 km. Not much ware. Very quiet tyre. Would recomend Show details

Excellent quality – Excellent tyre, good grip and great kilometers. I sold my previous 4WD with the tyres on 80,000km and they easily had another 20,000km in them. When it came to replacing the tyres on my current 4WD I didn’t hesitate and will continue to stick with the Toyo’s. I do a combination of sand driving, off roading and road driving and can’t be happier. Provides good side wall strength. Show details

WOULDN'T USE ANYTHING ELSE – As an avid off-roader, I have tried many A/T tyres over nearly thirty years. Coopers, Yokohama, BF Goodrich, Federal... none compare to the Toyo Open Country A/T II for quietness, off-road ability, on-road traction, sidewall strength or longevity. I've had my current set on for 60K klms and only two are at a point where I am considering changing… Read more ·  1

them, but had I rotated them more frequently they'd probably have a fair life left in them. I have run these for extended periods at 18psi-15psi and have experienced no sidewall damage and have never had a puncture. There are more expensive options out there, as there are cheaper options, but none offer such value for money.

Great working tyre, but noisy – What a great looking tyre, and a good performer off road. Having usually had HT tyres on my Pajero, I got a bit of a shock to hear these howling on the bitumen. These reviews here are not really accurate in regard to the noise levels. Luckily I have two sets of rims and change tyres quickly when I want to. For everyday driving I have a set of HTs. Show details

good hard wearing tyre. Running through sharp quartz and stone evan mud. Best tyre for the limit price – There great on all weather conditions but I don't know about snow as I haven't been in them conditions ive driven off road and 4x4 to these tyres do give me confidence to drive in places I would normally not go. Show details

Dependable off and on road – Have used these tyres to cross the Madigan Line, Great Central Road, Oodnadatta Track, Birdsville Track, and all over the Vic High Country. Never had a flat tyre. Crossed the Simpson desert at 18psi and no signs of side wall issues. They are very tough and yet very good traction in the wet on the tar. I've used them all the way down to 15psi in the Vic Alps for really good traction. Show details

Bought my First set second hand but WOW – Coming from a BFG family the chance arose to buy a set of second hand Toyo AT2's fitted on 16 inch Triton rims which had around 10 thou kms already on them for 400 bucks that still looked brand new. At that price I thought bugger it will give them a go and got them swapped onto my PJ Ranger rims. I have travelled all over Queensland 70% Tarmac 20%… Read more

Dirt and 10% uncharted track use. SO far no punctures I run them at 36 psi on Highways. I drop them back to 30 psi for long dirt roads. And back down to 20 psi for serious dont go there fun. I have done around 35000kms after fitment and they are still over 70% tread. Will be replacing them with a Brand new set of AT's when they finally wear out.

Over 110k mileage on these tyres of combined on and off road use – Bought January 2015 and it is now early May 2020 with 110k at least on these tyres. Needs replacing now but would not even consider anything else. The overall appearance remains good with no evidence of tyre deterioration elsewhere. The tyres are actually 7 years from manufacture. Show details

Great mid range tyre – I have the 255/70R16 and have performed well in wet / dry conditions on road. Off road they work well being an AT tyre and so far have lasted 50000 km and have plenty of life yet. I have a set of 6 tyres and rotate them every 10000 km. These tyres have the grip needed without getting chewed out.
