Not made in China and for what it's worth Toyo makes some good tires! Do a quick search and see for yourself. Look at the Toyo Open Country A/T's.

Well the Toyo's that were on my 98 I bought last year were Made In China. They were E rated tires. They came from Les Schwab. The same place this fine work was done!

Notice anything wrong?

I've had them. I'd list them as "ok" tread life wasn't all that good, barely 30K miles on my silverado, dry traction decent, wet traction was ok when new, but scary by the time they were half worn.

Compared to my Michelin LT's, they are a real dog IMHO. Michelins are more expensive, by get me 45K miles or so, much better dry and wet traction, and a quiter tire than the toyo's.

I used to be a Toyo fan, but the HT isn't on my good list. And around here Les Schwab has exclusive territory for Toyo's, and his prices have taken big jumps the last few years to the point that IMHO there are much better tires and values available around here.

30K ?? Would have liked to see pics of the tread when they came off, much to be said by the way they look at the end. Was the tread wearing even?
