I'm unfamiliar with this brand, but I'm intrigued. Will probably need new tires around the time these come out.

I wonder if these tires will be 3MPSF certified? The non-EV tires are, so these will probably be. Very interesting; they look great!

I can't wait to see these on Tyre Review against the non-EV-focused tires. I can't until next winter, so I will go with the Nokian Outpost nAT, which also claims to be "EV" approved.

Website says "Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake" so these are now on my list.

It will be VERY interesting to learn the range hit with these. Hopefully it will be minimal.

The word "quiet" doesn't appear in their description of the tires. "AeroWing" is nebulous word salad. They look cool.

The all-new Toyo Open Country A/T III EV is a cutting-edge EV-specific all-terrain replacement tire designed to increase the capability of today’s most popular EV trucks and SUVs. The innovative aerodynamic and rolling resistance features, such as a sidewall AeroWing™, advanced tread compound, and optimized tread pattern, address the unique vehicle requirements, like rapid acceleration, additional weight, and range efficiency. It also delivers exceptional off-road performance, confidence-inspiring on-road handling, and ride comfort – all while being equipped with Three-Peak Mountain Snowflake for all-weather driving confidence. The Open Country A/T III EV provides a significant upgrade to enhance your EV’s capability, appearance, and efficiency.

I have the non-EV 11.5x35 R17 on my truck and I love them. I am also running at like 70% of OEM range. Would love to get some of that range back.

They have a 1-5 scale at the bottom of the page comparing these to the non-EV version of the tire. EV version is listed as 5 for efficiency while non-EV is 3.5. It will be interesting to see how these work out in real world testing. It will be on my list when I eventually need new tires.

I had a set of Toyo P295/45R18 tires on my 2000 SVT Lightning, and they wore and performed very well.

Not to mention that they maxed out the fuel efficiency rating with no deprecation of any other characteristic. Seems too good to be true.

The tread "looks" like it would not be a quiet ride.

That's all fine and dandy but what I gleaned from the link is that HRE makes truck wheels now... and I wish I had em!
