    At work (auto repair) I see and install a lot of different tires and Toyos are some of the best tires on the market. I wouldn't necessarily say they're the best bang for the buck (because they are expensive) but if you've got the money I would get the Toyo M/Ts or even the Nitto Trail Grapplers. FYI: Nitto is a subdivision of Toyo so you know they're good stuff as well.

    So far toyo and bfg's are sounding good. I have the coopers now... and they kind of suck for the life period.

    I don't think I am going to buy the Cooper STT's again, I like the Nitto's trail grapplers, and the toyo mt.. the bfg's are nice too.

    I heard the Sidewalls are weak on the Kumho's. So what tire will last longer and do the job for me, Toyo M/T's or the BFG KM2's? I use them all year round, in snow, and mud, and pavement...

    Toyo MT's do better in the snow/ice IMO and wear like iron.

    So everyone thinks that the toyo's are the way to go for tires?
