Toyo Open Country A/T EV tires released

[Jackdforme]

Look back in this thread and see how I found mine. Local tire shop…price match from Discount Tire and then better price match from Ford. Was worth 3 emails and 3 phone calls!

Im going to get a quote from my mavis guy. we shall see.

This is Ford's price.

I got these installed after they first came out and they're great. I got the military discount from the parts counter guy and then got the gift card. The FP Rewards are a better deal though. I never did use all of that gift card before it expired...they are such a pain to use.

My range hasn't taken a hit at all from what I can see. And they get quieter the longer I run them.

Thanks for finding this! I need to replace my Hanooks, and was shopping around. Americas Tire price matched this and I am having them installed on Friday.

Ford is currently running a buy 3 get 1 for $1 promotion from 9/15 through the end of the month. I believe it's nationwide but dealers can opt out. I ordered some through my dealer and will be getting them installed this week. That was with the same advertised $367 per tire (plus mounting/balancing).

I inquired with my dealer for a set of 275/65R20 to take advantage of the buy 3 get 1 for 1$ special and they could only find 2 tires scattered throughout the whole country with their suppliers. Luckily my stock tires are fine at 25k miles but am still hoping to grab a pair of toyos on sale at some point.

I find this a bit surprising. Not sure where Ford sources their tires. I got an online quote from Ford here in Norcal and had America's Tire Price match. Ordered on Tuesday, had them installed yesterday. Since America's Tire owns Tire Rac,k they come out of Reno.

The advisor did mention I might have better luck with tire rack or equivalent as they have more warehouses to pull from. Although they are currently backordered on Tirerack. That's a great idea. I may see if America's Tire locate some and match Ford's deal.

I can't believe all these other tire manufacturers are giving up the additional profit margin they could be reeling in by simply stamping the letters "EV" on the sides of their tires. What are they waiting for?

how many all terrain tires are getting 2.1 on average though!

So I went to Americas Tire today and they agreed to match Fords discounted price. Unfortunately they also can’t find a set of the sl load 275/65r20 tires that I’m after. They are going to reach out to Toyo directly on Monday and see what we can do.

I wanted to chime in about efficiency with these tires. I've had them for ~1500 miles and just did a loop from the San Francisco Bay Area, up I-80 to explore some forest service roads in the Tahoe National Forest north of Truckee. Then drove down 395 to 108, up and over the Sonora Pass ( 9,600 ft ), to home. 520 miles total, mix of 70 mph on the freeways, much slower off road and in the mountains. Averaged 2.4 mi/kWh. Very pleased with the performance and as others have mentioned, they are really very quiet at speed.

I wonder about the vibrations you feel in the steering wheel and the ride quality with all-terrain tires? Any thoughts as compared to stock all-seasons?

Anyone have an updated scoop on who has the lowest price for these tires right now? Seems all the good tire deals have now passed.

I have these tires and feel no vibration in the steering wheel or in the truck. I have had them for 7000 miles now and they are awesome tires.
