Toyo Open Country A30

The TRD Sport is said to be coming with these tires, but I can't find any information on them. Does anybody have any insight on their performance?

 

Probably similar to the A20, but better.

They're a new tire, so not a lot of info yet.

I tried searching on those tires too. Couldn't find anything. Hopefully they are a lot better then the Dunlops they put on the 2nd generation.

 

I thought the sports were shipping with firestones? Do we know for sure its the toyos?

 

They either get Toyo A30's or Firestone Destinations A/T

 

Hmm either way I'm still changing out the tires right away.

 

What are you switching too?

 

Not sure yet but leaning towards the nitto grappler g2.

 

...OK....question for you guys who mod their trucks:

...Is the main purpose for adding a lift-kit to allow clearance for much bigger tires.....or for added ground clearance....or both?....

...OR...is it just so y'all can run over cute little sports cars?!.............

 

Yes, Yes.. and Yes.

 

...LOL!....Muchos Thanks!

 

So maybe Firestone for 4x4 and Toyo for 4x2...?

 

Mine came with Bridgestone Dueller H/Ts stock. But yes the dunflops suck if you unluck out on those.

 

The Firestone is well regarded by consumers of Tire Rack. I would keep them unless you have a need for a better tire

I wouldn't be surprised if the Toyo's were a nice tire. Their newest lines, like the C/T and R/T are very impressive. However the open country A/T has been fairly disappointing every time I've tried it, both the first and second generation of the tire had wear issues for me on gravel. So it will be interesting to see what happens. I'm sure for the Tacoma owners that stick to pavement they will be a nice tire.

I'd ditch the Dueler H/T too as some others are suggesting. Tire Rack is mostly soccer moms and discount dads writing about how well their new highway tires just did in the rain. It's still useless on any level of dirt or snow. The Toyo will be much the same if it is similar to the A20.

 

Yeah, it's funny that all the other trim level tires are top rated on Tire Rack except the Toyos on the Sport. Even the SR gets a better tire?!?

 

Looks like the toyo A30 is a brand new tire. There is no information on it.

 

Meanwhile the Frontier Pro4x is equipped with 265/75R16 Hankook Dynapro ATM's. I'd assume their profit margin is a little wider with the ancient D40 platform though lol. Glad to see the Dunlops gone, the Rugged trails aren't as bad as people make them out to be. At the end of the day if I'm spending $35k on a truck the stock tires better be a bit decent.

 

The photos of a new Sport yesterday had the Firestones on it.
