Well guys...

I was finally going to bite the bullet and buy some tires today for the ole' truck.

I've got an '05 F-150 FX4 with a 2 1/2 leveling kit and an extra set of 2" blocks in the back, with factory 18's.

It looked like my two options were either the 305-65-18 BFG's or the 285-75 Toyo AT's. The BFG's were way too expensive so I opted for the Toyo's.

Only thing is, the Toyo's aparently don't exist. I've heard stories about them and have even seen them on a couple tire selling websites. But, they are not on Toyo's website and I can't get them through any of the tire shops around town. What gives? I can't afford the shipping for the ones I found online as specialy since I don't even know if they really exist.

So, what else is out there in a 35ish tall all terrain that will fit on a stock wheel and not rub?

 

Wait,

I just saw the post about the Toyo MT's.

I saw the size I wanted in the AT's at Tradedepot.com as the thread suggested. Anyone have much dealings with them?

Are any of you running the 285-75-18? Thoughts?

 

I got the 285-75-18 toyo mt's. Awsome so far. Fit well too. Treadepot.com cheapest price, free shipping. Took about a week cause they had to order them from toyo though.

 

Post some pics, I want to put these on my factory rims to run in the winter to save my chrome rims.

 

I just checked out that treadepot.com and their prices didnt seem that great. I know Toyo M/T are expensive but damn.

I am looking to get 295/70/17's and Im lookin at $253 a tire (cheapest, local)

Have you tested them in the mud yet, maxout05?

 

Yea i dont know where you guys are saying Toyo's are cheap. They are one of the most expensive tire IMO

 

yeah but they will last longer than other tires so it evens out

 

toyo's cost me less then or equal to all tires in thier class. Every tire I looked at for my truck was almost the same price as these, including bfg at. I dont see how everone think they are so much more. 1000 for tires is alot anyway, so I oted to spend 1100 to get the better tire.
Btw the way these are the **** in the snow!! they blow through it like it's rain!!

 

Just gotta man up and spend the dough for the good ones I guess!! Its frozen ouyt right now so nope! Sure are snow tested though!!

 

I found toyo AT's today, 275/65/18's for $820, mounted, balanced and me driving down the road... and that was without me bargaining them down...

 

The Toyo AT's are way cheaper then the MT. I'm not talking at's I wanted agression, I'm talking mt's. I don't buy at's.
