Are the Toyo's strictly M/T or are they an AT/MT hybrid as well? Something to consider. The Nittos are supposed to have the on road characteristics of an AT and the off road characteristics of the MT. I dont think the Toyos can say the same. Perhaps someone can prove me wrong.

very good point AF, but i LOOOVVVEEE my toyos and i have NEVER heard 1 bad thing said about them. theyre quiet at highway speeds, perform great in anything ive ever been in or done and are just great, even wear great. i can not say about the trail grapps, so im not gonna knock them, but they are a fairly new tire and the toyo has been around for some time and has quite the track record...and honestly, i know the OP wont be going with 40's but for as large as they are they dont handle or seem like theyre that big at all, awesome handling....if i were to rate the toyos out of 10, they would recieve an 11 without a second thought....

trail graps may be new as well, but nitto is CERTAINLY a reputable company. And from what I've heard Nitto really nailed it with the Trail Grapps. They're the best of both worlds without any of the drawbacks of either. I cant say for sure on either, but I do know i've heard GREAT things about both tires. I'm interested myself to be honest...these Pro-comp X-terrains SUCK! They're almost bald now and wont make it through another winter, so i'll probably help them wear out a little faster when i get this new cam in. I'll be going with either the trail grapps or toyos as well
