Toyo Open Country R/T review
The Toyo Open Country R/T is widely regarded as a premium, versatile hybrid tire that successfully bridges the gap between aggressive mud-terrain aesthetics and daily-driver road manners. While most users praise its exceptional off-road traction and surprisingly quiet highway performance, a minority of owners report issues with ride harshness, balancing difficulties, or inconsistent tread longevity.
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.
