We're contemplating changing the club's name to "The Calgary Toyo club". ;)

Yeah...because Toyo muds are known for wearing quickly. ???

Oh wait....I've got 17,000 km's plus a trip to Moab on mine, and they're still at about 90%. wearing 100% evenly.

Ever owned a set of Toyo MT's? Ever kept any of your Jeeps roadworthy long enough to rack up 20,000 km?

Unless you were able to answer "yes" to those questions, this is your cue to STFU.

We now return you to regularly scheduled programming ;)

i`ve never owned a set but i wanted to and all the reviews i read said no one was getting more then 30k so it turned me off them, apparently i was looking in the wroung area, and all my jeeps have been road worthy i just take them appart offten to do more mods and i`ve been payment free i bet you can`t say that

Post by: Bnine on October 21, 2010, 08:47:42 PM: Those were probably 1 ton reviews. Still, I got 40k of oilfield miles on a set of toyo mts with my 95 crew cab 1 ton. They were worn down, but would still go another 10k I imagine.

On a jeep you should safely get 60.

You do have a point. All your rigs were road worthy until you wheeled them.
