    Yeap put them on at 106k miles and just turned 153k so another oil change and I'll be at 50k.
    It's weird that you only got that much out of them being the tread depth is deeper than the K02
    Might just be my truck :notsure:
    I got almost 70k out toyo open country

    Just to add a couple more tires to your list. Maxxis makes the Bighorn MT-762 in 255/85/16 and the Buckshot Mudder II MT-764 in 235/85/16.

    Yeah I’m surprised too! I do a lot of highway too. I’m around 38,000 on this set.

    i always loved those tires
    the set i had on mine came with the truck which i bought from a friend. im not sure at what mileage he put them on at but when i bought the truck it had 50k miles on it and i changed them at 106k.
    we were in highschool when he got the truck brand new and slapped the Toyos on it so i would guess he put 20-25k miles on them before me.
    could have got another 10k easy out of them but what i thought was the tires howling ended up being a bad wheel bearing. not disappointed with the switch to k02 though

    I'm sure LadyRed will get back to you but those wheels are Ray 10's and they are -12.

    They look great!

    No spacers and like @PuyallupJon said the wheels have a -12mm offset. Here’s few more shots of the offset:

    Don't take this the wrong way, but that's a nice rear end. :)

    With the right wheels the pizza cutters look great.

    I'm considering getting some soon. With a 3" lift and 255/80 17's I think I would be set. My current wheels are only -6 but meh, close enough.

    I wish I decided to go with a 17” wheel. There are so many more options. The 16” really is limited when it comes to skinnies.

    I sold my '09 Tacoma with Open Country MT's and they had about 40k miles, still plenty of tread left. I saw my old truck a few months back and it looked like it had the same tires on it that it did when I sold it in '14. Looking pretty bald, but that is nearly 8 years and who knows how many miles. Long lasting tires on light trucks for sure.
