I ran Sumitomo HTR's from Tirerack for the last TWO sets I put on my van and my previous F150, I'm telling you they were great tires got over 45K out of them and they had great traction in both wet and damp roads. They were quiet on drives yet aggresive enough for four wheelin, I'll buy them again when I need new tires for my 06 QC

Toyo's are great tires, have great dirt traction, as well as low road noise.. BFG's are very good as well, but the Toyo's are much better looking!

Toyos are nice but man they are not cheap. $300+ for M/T's. and 200+ for 285/70/17 all terrain. In my opinion, the all terrain doesn't look all that great.

$650.00 shipping included for (4) Toyo Open Country AT's 285/70/17 from a wholesale store in Arkansas about a year ago and they look great. Best rubber I've had yet.

Sure. That would be Wholesale Tire Outlet. Toll Free# is (800) 519-9183 (ask for Brad, national sales director). They are out of Batesville Arkansas and have a website but the server appears to be down right now. http://www.wtotires.com/index.html

So, today I had the Toyo a/t's put on my truck. Holy crap I love them. Totally quiet on the drive but look awesome. The truck rides and handles better than it ever did with the wranglers. I spent $800 with install. So far, worth every penny.
