Can't review them but it's a 33" tire

 

I can't comment on this tires performance as DTD does not carry Toyo, but I'll touch on sizing.

Typically speaking, no tire measures up to the size noted on the sidewall and usually run shorter. A 285/70R-17 size tire, for example, is considered 33-inches in diameter and is stated as such by the tire manufacturers. However when actually measured on the vehicle, this size typically comes out under 32-inches in diameter. It's important to note that lift kit manufacturers state the tire size compatible with their lift/s are referring to what is written on the sidewall of tire and not the actual true height of the tire.

With that all being said, if you want a "true" measuring 33-inch tire diameter, you would need to run a tire with a size around 35-inches; 315/70R-17 for example.

 

Toyo

 

Ran them on an old jeep. Practically a bullet proof tire and will get your in or out of anything you need but are very heavy for our light trucks you'll probably get road noise and notice different ride quality. If your wanting the mud terrain look but something smoother and quieter the toyo open country RT is a great choice similar in price if not cheaper and does come with a mileage warranty. It's also a few lbs lighter

 

I have 275 Toyo MT's and they are slippery in the rain. Haven't been on snow and don't intend to.
