I looked at these and was told they are very good. As I was looking for a wheel and tyre package I ended up with nexens instead . I will be going for the Toyos once Nexens are gone. Present :2008 TDV8 HSE

run them on my M Coupe knocking on 500bhp
stick like SH@t to the proverbial shovel good in wet
but when driving agressive they dont last too long

but you cant have both high mileage and sticky Growing old is compulsory Growing up is optional

United Kingdom 2007 Range Rover Vogue SE TDV8 Zermatt Silver

I put a set on mine having read good reviews

Done approx 10k, grip is good in wet and dry, low noise and very little signs of wear so far (although I do a lot of motorway miles)

I would rate them as better than the Dunlop Grand Trek which were on the car when I bought it. 2007 Zermatt Silver TDV8 Vogue SE - now sold but was a great car!

Just to add, I believe they are a very road biased tyre - fine for me as I'm unlikely to go off-road, but may be an issue for others Thumbs Up 2007 Zermatt Silver TDV8 Vogue SE - now sold but was a great car!

Just to reiterate the 255.50.20's seem to wear quickly but the 285.35.22's last for donkey's... Rolling Eyes Don't know why? Maybe more side wall movement on the 20's giving scuffing?

Did not think the Yokohama currently on the front have lasted that long only been on for 11 months just realised they have done nearly 20k so can't complain about that rears have done about 12k they will need replaced as well. Gone

England 2005 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.2 SC V8 Buckingham Blue

I have had them for a year (15k) and still going strong. Bought them as I was getting fed up with replacing Continentals every 10k with badly scrubbed corners. Theory was that if I was going to scrub the corners off my tyres, they may as well be cheaper ones.

I have not noticed any difference to the Contis except that the Toyos are lasting longer. Noise, grip, economy all seem about the same.

Very pleased with them. 2014 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography & 2015 3.0SDV6 HSE Lux Discovery 4
