Ive heard awesome things about the Toyo's traction wet and dry. However I've also heard from a friend of mine that they hum pretty bad on the freeway, being a stiff tire with a deep V-groove. No first hand experience though.

Not to hijack the thread, but how long are toyo's supposed to last?

I have the Hankook's (305/40R22) and I think they are an excellent tire. I can't compare them to the Toyo's bacause I have never owned a set but these tires are very quiet and have great traction in wet & dry conditions. Just my opinion.
