Toyo Open Country A/T plus review
The Toyo Open Country A/T plus is widely regarded as a versatile, high-value all-terrain tire that balances respectable off-road capability with commendable on-road manners. While most users praise its quiet highway performance and strong traction in mud and snow, a subset of owners reports inconsistent experiences regarding wet-weather grip and long-term balancing stability.
Two scoring systems, side by side
Owner scores come from reviews on retailer and review sites; road-test scores come from instrumented tests. Where they disagree, it is usually a discipline owners rarely push to the limit.

Pros
- Impressive highway quietness for an all-terrain tread pattern
- Strong off-road performance in mud, sand, and loose rock
- Excellent value proposition compared to premium competitors
- Durable construction capable of handling heavy towing loads
- Predictable handling and stability at highway speeds
Cons
- Reports of inconsistent wet-weather traction, particularly on freshly wet pavement
- Occasional difficulty achieving a perfect balance, leading to vibrations
- Tread life variability, with some users noting faster-than-expected wear
- Sidewall stiffness can lead to a harsh ride on lighter vehicles
Worth knowing
- Heavy-duty truck owners (e.g., Ram 2500, F350) report excellent load-carrying capacity and stability when towing, provided proper tire pressures are maintained.
- EV owners (e.g., Rivian R1T) noted that while the tires are capable off-road, their weight and stiffness can negatively impact ride comfort and energy efficiency.
- Users of lighter vehicles like the Jeep Wrangler or Subaru Crosstrek noted that choosing the correct load rating (C vs. E) is critical to maintaining ride quality.
