Toyo 285/75R17s En Route

Post by Luke Duke » Sat Jul 23, 2016 12:33 pm

Just had the local shop order me some Toyos. My dad wanted my Duratracs so we came to an agreement. Can't wait to fill up the wheel wells a little more!

Thanks for the vote of confidence. I've had Nittos but never Toyos.

On a tangent; it's always kinda weird explaining to people that they don't need width/floatation like they think they do.

I have had mine in everything but deep mud and they have been amazing. I keep thinking some 37s would look cool but not really practical. This size tire has done everything I have wanted to try.

I had that very same tire and size on my '05, went back to a 35x12.50...wish I had stayed with the 285/75. Great all around size, wish someone would make a 35x10.50 in a good all around tire.

They are a good tire. I've put right at 10k miles so far and have zero complaints.

Got them put on today! It made the wheel well:wheel/tire ratio look a lot more balanced.

What is a good price for the Toyo RT's?

- I have a quote from Discount tire for Nitto Ridge Grapplers in 35" for $286/tire + $16/tire mounting + taxes
- $376/tire + $16+ taxes for 35" Toyo RT's

- FatBoyz gave me a quote of $1351 OTD for 35" RT's & $1371 for 37's
- they quoted same price for the Nittos

- The RT's have a 45K mileage warranty, the Nitto's don't. Both tires made in same Georgia plant, both are an In-between hybrid type AT/MT. Discount tire will price match & offer a 10% active duty discount.

I paid around $330 per tire for 35 inch rts before fees and road hazard on a no sales tax weekend sale (just shy of $400 per out the door). Found a place or two online that had them listed cheaper, but after taxes, mounting fees etc., physical store (4 wheel parts) was a better deal. Then went back and paid $220 for a thingy to reprogram my speedo because dealers won't touch them.

Worth every penny. Ecstatic that I went with RTs. You'll love them. And wonder why 35s don't come stock.

Just to be clear; go to Fatboyz, buy the Toyos.

I just paid $315 per tire plus all the other charges for 35x12.50x17 E rated RTs.

I almost had them for $290 per, but I waited 2 weeks too long. The distributor must have had a special offer that expired. My tire guy didn't know what happened.

Not that it matters because I bought 285/75/17 Cooper Discoverer ST Maxx, but I paid $279.00 Per tire Plus $35.55 per tire shipping for a total of $1572.72 ($314.55 each) OTD shipped to my house (5 tires). Still will be stuck with $19.00 M&B per tire.

Can 4WP do the TPMS as well or just speedo?

On the RTs, they don't have the winter snow flake, correct? (We are in chain law/traction law country so I am limited to snowflakes)

You have to buy a $200 programmer (or one of the nicer ones) to do the speedo. If I had bought it the when I bought the tires they would have calibrated the speedo for me during install.

They won't mess with TPMS settings, nor would any dealers I visited. All said it is illegal, and dealers said their most recent software updates removed the ability to do it altogether, even if they wanted to.
