Looks like Toyo is trying to compete with the Duratracs. Anybody seen their new AT II in person?

I just looked at them for my diesel at Les Schwab. 50.000 mile rating.

Um...what?

I like the long treadlife and would consider them for my next purchase. The Goodyear's are 1600 a set for me so I'd be very interested if the price were below that amount. While my current set will probably last only 30K miles, they cost me less than $700 for the set new (about 780 total balanced and installed).

If you can forego the LT requirement, the warranty is even higher:
"Pavement is optional with these versatile all-terrain tires. They offer over 40% more treadlife than the leading competitors*, a blatantly aggressive tread design, and a quiet ride. The all-new Open Country A/T II also comes with an industry-leading 65,000-mile warranty and our No Regrets® 45-day, 500-mile trial offer. In addition to our limited warranty, the Open Country A/T II comes with the following treadwear warranty:
P-metric/Metric: 65,000 miles
LT/Flotation: 50,000 miles"

They look like an aggressive street tire. I think tread depth was 16/21 compared to the mt that was 21/32.

I was quoted $1,3xx for 35x12.5x17 at Les Schwab which usually is on the high side but I don't mind paying more for their service.

I was told though, that my size was on back order. They assured me though they could get them soon if I needed them.

Um...what?

Sams has a different brand of tire 35x12.50/17 for 268 a tire. I think thats probably 1200 for a set of 4 mounted and balanced with a warranty. However they were Fierce Attitude tires, which is an MT pattern...

Oh and remember that everyone now pays another 1% in CA sales tax for every purchase!

I ran the AT on my Suburban and was going to get the same thing but they were a little pricy. I ended up buying the Terra Grappler and saved around 300$.
Check out this site for good prices.

Larry just put the new A/Ts on his Dodge. Saw them for the first time today. They're definitely not as aggressive as the Duratracs but they're more aggressive that the old A/Ts.
