Toyo Open Country A/T 3 EV

[MapleMan650]

Just snagged some of the new Toyo’s from a local tire shop! I’m heading out for a bit of a highway drive tomorrow, will report back on efficiency and ride.

The shop filled them up to 60 PSI. I reached out to Toyo and they recommend 52 PSI unloaded.

Please let us know efficiency loss specifics if you gather them. Appreciate it.

I’ve been running 46psi is what they put in maybe I’ll go up the recommended 52

I’ve put a few hundred miles on them today and riding at 60 PSI feels fine to my butt. I’ll probably drop them down to 52 next week since that’s what Toyo recommends.

I need to stop stalling and get me a set. These look great, especially if the hit on efficiency is around the advertised 5%.

Are these the LT version? Kind of waiting for the 116 Load rated versus the 123 which is a heavier tire.

So far so good on the range. There is a little bit of a hit but it seems very minimal. Here’s a pic from my morning commute.

Yeah, these are the LT version but so far the range hit is really minimal. They do ride a bit stiffer but I really like that, the truck feels more like a truck now and less like a car.

Those tires look awesome on your Lightning, Martin!

How much louder are they vs stock?

I think it’s fine, stock tires are completely silent. These tires I do here them but thats only when the radio is and air is off and windows are up. If I came directly from a ICE vehicle right into them I prob wouldn’t even hear them

Hopefully they consider making 18" wheel sizes since the Chevrolet EV truck will now come with 18" wheels on the lower trims

Ok, one thing I will say about these tires. They are rock spitters. I have a gravel driveway and these things always pick up a rock or two and eject them once I get on the highway. I can hear the rocks bang into the battery skid plate everyday. I just ordered a set of the Ford OEM mud flaps to try and save other drivers from getting a part of my driveway in their windshield.

An artifact of the larger gaps in the tread I suppose? Is this a common thing among other all terrain tires? I don't have any experience in this realm.
