I do despise people with bald tires. That is really asking for trouble!
I had the Toyo MT and I'll never buy Toyo tires again. Great traction in the snow but noisy and terrible wear. I rotate every 3-4 regardless of what the manufacturer says, more rotation mean longer life and that is a fact.
But what also become a problem was fuel economy, so I went with a narrower tire that keeps my stock height. Less rolling resistance, better traction in the snow and ice.
I just put a set of Firestone Transforce tires on the plow truck and they are as good as the Toyo MT's ever were for plowing.
Anyone looking in this area, Stratum tire beat everyone's price.
