Toyo tires

I am in need of a new set of tires to replace my 8 year old Goodyear 275/80R/22.5. I am looking at Toyo M154 295/75R/22.5. I received a quote of $4,070 for 6 tires with mounting, balancing and tax. Does that sound about right?
  • Absolutely. You can also see how much they cost on tirerack.com and it will generally give you a good idea.

    I made that exact same tire change from Michelin to Toyo. I paid a total of $2,427.12 two years ago for 6 tires. The cost per tire (w/o mounting, balancing, and tax) was $350.68, which is now ~$375 per tire. I got the tires from our local Les Schwab store, part of a western US tire chain. The owner even came out from behind the counter to shake my hand. They provide great service.

    I like the feel of the Toyo tires, and the manager said that they can be re-capped twice. That's probably not an issue with me, because I will probably replace the tires for age rather than tread wear.
  • I just put on a set of Toyo M144's,295/80R22.5. Set of 8 for $3650. They replaced Goodyear RV670's. Used balance beads in them. Only have a couple hundred miles on them so far. They seem a little smoother then the Goodyears.
  • When I bought new front tires, I found Les Schwab to be very high in cost compared to other shops.
  • Blu, I found Les spot on price for one TT tire and done in one hour fifteen minutes. As for a TT flat not on their tire...NO charge.

    Yup. I bought mine about four years ago and it was almost $4k then.

    Edit: After reading some of the other replies I pulled my old receipt up and mine was actually $3000, not $4000. The tires were Toyo 265/75R/22.5. And this was in California so it sounds like there may be better deals in other states

    But you can't beat Les for quality service. At least I've always had quality service from them. It's the only place I buy tires for all my vehicles. They will take care of you for the life of that tire. I even took my wife's Mercedes in a few weeks ago with a nail in the tire and they fixed it for free even though the tires were the originals on the car and not theirs. I bought a new tire for my riding lawn mower online thinking I could mount it myself, and I could not. Took it down to Les and they mounted it for free.
  • my fronts are M120z bought jan 2014
    my rears bought jan 2015 are M170z

    they don't make M120z any more ? so i was told

    anyway they all cost around $400 @

    those M154 must be a much better ride, will maybe check on those next time

    I was pleased with them years ago with my TT, truck, and car but not so much with my MH. It could be their source of 22.5" tires isn't as competitive as shops more dedicated to truck tires.
