Interesting reading about the tires people have, and the ones they are getting as replacements. So far I have not seen anyone talk about Toyo tires. I was by the Les Schwabe tire store this weekend and got to talking to him about the Missions. They actually had a set of Freestars that someone had brought/traded in. I asked him what he would recommend, and he said he would recommend the Toyo brand. He did have one change though, if my rims are 7 inches, and I believe they are, he said he would go to a 265 size tire instead of the 235 that is on there now. It boosts the load rating by around 400 pounds each. I have known about Toyo's for a long time. I remember when I first saw them about 40 years ago on a friend of mine's pickup. They seem to hold up really well from others I've talked to. Any thoughts from anyone else?
