Tyre reviews Toyo Open Country A/T Plus 326

There was no winter driving, for that there is winter tire, so we'll skip that. So, about the warm season from snow to snow. On the asphalt everything is great, aquaplaning up to 100km/h as a fact at a water layer in the track up to 4cm up to 50% wear. A/T Goodyear on such a situation are already floating, I know, wore out two sets at 200,000 km. On the asphalt To

On a permanent 4x4 drive - everything's okay and behaves predictably (5+ on a snowy trail, on ice no sharp movements needed). Great all-season!

Ran 8000 km on these tires. Great model. Holds the road at 160 km/h without any issues. At speeds above 100 km/h it's a bit loud, but that's to be expected. It doesn't do well in heavy mud, but does okay in sand. On wet surfaces at 140 km/h it handles great. The tread cleans well from debris. Did not use in the winter, would need studs. Otherwise satisfied with the tires.

A great combination for the city dweller who loves to escape to nature. The tire is effective in the city, behaves almost like a highway tire on the highway, but really comes into its own off the highway. Our summer season was extended by a couple of months on these tires. I drove on rutted dirt roads and sand, the car handles confidently, but I don't recommend driving into obvious mud - there won't be any miracles - that's obvious. The tire easily and quickly shakes off

I bought these tires in Moscow in September 2018. I drove to Chelyabinsk twice in the winter. In August 2019, I drove from Chelyabinsk to Kazan, then to Moscow, Brest, Belgrade, Venice, Split, Herceg Novi, Belgrade, and back to Chelyabinsk - 15,000 km. I drove on mountains and highways. They've been used in peacekeeping operations before, but nothing comes close to

I replaced the Goodyear Wrangler AT which had run 83,000 km and the remaining tread was no longer able to confidently move on gravel and mud. As I don't like changing tires in the peak season and I wanted a buffer time and confidence off-road again I looked for a different AT. After installing the Toyo, I noticeably felt acoustic comfort. The tire is noticeably softer, and this summer I was in Karelia, Crimea, and Abkhazia on all road sections

My choice of 225/75 R16 is perfectly fine. I've caught 4 large potholes with a suspension breach - the tire withstood all the torture of our roads. I didn't need to get into the mud, but I drove in the mountains and enjoyed the behavior of the car on the serpentine: regardless of the tire, it holds the road, doesn't slip on gravel and on dry asphalt. No aquaplaning, goes through puddles by the bumper

The experience of operating this tire is year-round. The main advantages, in my opinion, are:
1. Absolutely predictable behavior and stable performance on all corresponding types of coverage.
2. It really reveals and even slightly increases the potential off-road, effective grip on the sides, allows you to slow down if necessary.
3. Durability and long service life. I've driven two sets for 90,000 +/- with overlap in the winter, it's worth noting that by the middle of the service life, in the winter, they're already not confident when braking, but that's not surprising (and they're simply puncture-proof, I've jumped over a temporary road sign 150 times without any hint of damage or loss of direction for the entire time, not a single puncture, a spare tire is not needed in principle, unless you blow out the wheel on stones).
4. The cost is adequate.
5. They don't increase fuel consumption compared to highway tires.
Overall impressions, tires for those who approach the choice rationally and actively use their car, allowing confident operation in moderate winter conditions. In winter, the only place where they lose is when braking on ice, but if you make the corresponding adjustments in your head and bring it up to 2.0, then everything is fine. But this is only for those who understand how and on what types of coverage it is necessary to manage the car and have the corresponding driving skills in difficult road conditions. I was glad to help with the choice. Good luck on the roads!

Installed these tires on my Nissan Niva. 195/80 R15 size worked just fine. Handles rough gravel roads with potholes quite well. Also handles the highway just fine.

Year-round use is possible in 4WD mode (but only carefully), and this tire can be used like a paddle in the water, it has no tread pattern.
