Tyre reviews Toyo Open Country U/T 297

I upgraded to summer tires from -3°C in the morning to +7°C during the day. The impressions are only the most positive. The tire is soft, already at this temperature it cushions the potholes and small holes. Handling is excellent (I replaced the winter tire DMV-2) and even improved by 10%. Compared to the standard summer Danlo 7000, handling has improved by 30% (including steering, acceleration, and braking). The car rides very well

I looked for a substitute for the factory-installed Danlok SP Sport, the most disgusting tire that was installed on the Antara from the factory. It is hard, noisy, and completely uncontrollable, especially in a rut. I live in the Republic of Komi, and we have a climate feature - asphalt on the road appears much earlier than positive temperature. Therefore, I decided to buy an all-season tire. Not to ride on it all year round, but to avoid hardening on dry

I bought tires at Mosavtosina for the first time.

Minus: If you want to get them quickly, then this is not the place, it took 2 weeks from the order to receipt; 2 out of 4 wheels could not be inflated immediately, apparently they were stuck due to improper storage, possibly during transportation.

Plus: I received the desired wheels, almost found only in this company; received in May, while production in February, i.e.

Good day!! I have purchased a Duster in 2013 with Amtel tyres, tread pattern matches M+S, but operational parameters do not withstand criticism, and most importantly, the sidewalls of the tyres (on all four wheels) have protective liners and small cracks, as I conduct routine inspections of the Technical Service and my inspection list includes inspection of tyres, so I often encounter the "Amte" disease, probably corroded cord threads and tread profile wear, i.e. the eight-

The tire was chosen with the possibility of going off the asphalt in mind, and it has indeed fulfilled its purpose. Storming through off-road terrain is perhaps not worth it, but getting out of the road on a muddy clay surface is another matter entirely. The tire has shown itself to be quite capable of handling mountain roads in Crimea and Krasnodar in the summer of 2018 - moderate wear, comfortable ride, and no issues with tracking. But in November, the first layer of ice

Kazakhstan, Almaty. March, 2025.
Tire production date - 10th week, 2024. Country of origin - Japan.
The price of 1 tire is 55,000 tenge, with an exchange rate of 6 to 1 to the ruble. I had planned to spend 92,000 tenge for 1 Michelin Latitude Cross tire.
The expected area of operation is approximately 85% city, 10% highway, 5% dirt roads and light off-road.
Replaced the stock Continental Premium Contact 6 tires - at the time of replacement, the tires had traveled 60,000 km, with a remaining resource of about 10%, but the sidewalls had begun to crumble.
I was looking for Michelin Latitude Cross - France, I have positive experience with them, but the tires are not available and cannot be ordered.
I chose from:
1. IKON (Nokian) Nordman S2 SUV 99H Nordman/Character, Autograph Aqua 3 SUV;
2. Toyo Proxes ST 3;
3. Goodyear Eagle Sport 2SUV;
4. Nexen N'Fera RU5;
5. Yokohama Geolandar G95A;
6. Pirelli Powergy.
7. Nokian Outpost - discontinued, but some stock remains.
What was available for purchase as of 3.2025.
Priorities when making a decision: overall reliability, sturdy sidewall and tire, comfort, wear resistance, noise level.
Overall impressions: smooth ride, medium hardness, unevenness - small potholes and joints pass perfectly, noise level subjectively - no higher than Continental PC 6.
Before making a decision, I familiarized myself with numerous materials, the best sources in my opinion - Vokoleno and Mosavtoshina. I have a feeling of satisfaction with the correctness of my choice, and the time spent monitoring, searching and comparing was not wasted.
Good luck to all!!

I bought Toyo Open Country U/T tires in 2017. According to reviews, they were one of the quietest and softest among mid-budget options. I confirm this - they are soft and quiet. I purchased them with the possibility of driving off-road in a crossover. I didn't drive in the mud. I didn't test them on sand, ravines, or slippery grass - not that kind of tire. On the city streets and highways - excellent. I experienced aquaplaning a couple of times, the behavior didn't quite impress me. But the speed was 140-150 km/h (on the Petersburg toll road). It's 2023 now. The tires have become very hard and noisy over the last year or two, like AMT tires. It's just awful. It's understandable that they are already 5 years old. But it's annoying. Summary: as long as the top layer is intact (1-2 years), they are quiet. Then, in the 3-4th year, they become moderately soft and noisy. And in the 5th year, it's like driving a trolleybus. The tread is still there.

Looking for the optimal tires for a crossover - so that you can drive both on asphalt and on a dirt road.

Thought it would be noisy or consumption would increase - everything is okay, satisfied with the tires,

I purchased the Toyo tire in size 225/65R17 to replace the original Yokohama G91, which had worn down to 3-4mm after 52,000 km of mileage. The Toyo tire was manufactured in Malaysia in 2021 and I bought it new in 2022. The Toyo tire performed excellently on wet dirt roads, not clogging up instantly like the Yokohama. I drove it for two summer seasons, traveling through the mountainous terrain of Altai and on dirt roads, and the tire was really worthy. The wear after 12,000 km of mileage was not significant, with the remaining tread depth in the central grooves ranging from 7 to 7.4 mm, and the outer grooves were initially deeper in design. On the highway, I accelerated up to 160 km/h, and the handling was quite predictable.

It's a pity that I couldn't buy a new one now, as I replaced the RAV40 body with a 50, which has 18" wheels. They sell Toyo tires from Kazakhstan on Ozone, but the sellers couldn't tell me what year they were made. In the end, I bought the Yokohama G058, which seems to be a worthy tire as well, manufactured in Thailand.

Quite soft, comfortable and quiet. Writing about sleep and ice is like writing about skates on asphalt. The mileage is still small, 4500, in the condition of a new one. I use it on asphalt, but on sand and soil I turn without fear, but here the car and the size of the tire allow me to worry less. Great tire for the city and the highway, fuel consumption compared to AT has decreased. It doesn't feel the track on the asphalt, unless it
