Toyo M143 tires

Has anyone had experience with the Toyo M 143 16 ply tire on their MH.Pricing locally they're $2,600 out the door for 6,which is better price than 14 ply Hankooks .

  • Toyos (not sure which model) were on the coach when bought it but they were 10 years old so I replaced them with Hankooks since I could no longer buy them in my size. While they aged well the sidewalls were very stiff, still I think they are good tires.
  • just replaced the original tires on our 2002 Itasca 32V with the Toyo's from Les Schwab, 6 tires mounted/balanced just over $2500.00. Took a trip to LA from Seattle and back. Tires worked great.
  • My CC came with Toyo's and I loved them. Id have bought new ones but dealers here act like they never heard of them or quotes a price that wasnt even remotel close

    Romer1, I did a little research for you Toyo is a Japanese Company that has been around since 1945, they bought out the Cheng Shin Tire Co. of China in 2002. They have tire plants in just about every country. The M-143 that your asking about are made in Toyo's plant in Atlanta Georgia U.S.A. and there USA HQ is in Cypress, CA. The M-143 tires are a hard rubber truck tire. I got on a Toyo M-143 tire reviews RV Forum and they got outstanding reviews there, and they have a solid reputation around the World. If you decide to buy these tires they have a good RV tire care website toyotires101! Sounds like a good deal to me! Good Luck


    Thanks.

    I was on their website and found their medium truck tire data book. It shows the M143 not recommended for RV. A call to them verified that it can be used for RV, but they want dealer to verify axle ratings, etc.

  • Have run two Dutchstar DSDP's with this tire for over 40,000 miles on each coach. The ride is harsher than with Michelins, but the price is much better. The Toyo's performed well and I was overall pleased with them. The sidewalls on this tire are very stiff, but you can run a slightly lower tire pressure based on the weight/pressure tables.
