The wet weather performance of these tyres around town borders on dangerous. In the wet they frequently spin on the spot when trying to accelerate normally from a standstill at an interesection. Recently the rear end spu... Read more > n out as I was exiting a roundabout causing the ABS break alert to appear on the dash and I was unable to accelerate due to some rubbishy safety feature. Cars behind me must have wondered what I was doing? I had to pull over, off the road to let them past before the ABS went off and I could resume. In my opinion these tyres are dangerous in wet weather. And I don't have driving confidence in them at all for wet weather highway driving. I just wish my new car warranty would include getting them replaced with better ones.

Quite reasonable in the dry. Downright dangerous in the wet. Worst tyres I've driven on in wet weather once down to half tread.

Dry performance is no problem. Even though the Pajero Sport is a bigger vehicle, you can throw it around and know that the tyres will grip reasonably well on hard-top roads...when dry. When it is raining, then it's a dif... Read more > ferent story. Pulls up well in a straight line with no abs shudder, but turn a corner or go around a roundabout, the back end loses grip easily and slides. I now engage 4WDh in the wet just as a precaution. It had given me a good scare a few times....

Alright in the dry. Did surprisingly well off-road for a HT tyre. Hopeless on wet roads. These tyres weren’t designed for wet handling. The worst part is the loss of traction is not linear, it just suddenly lets go. I wo... Read more > uld not buy a Toyo tyre ever because of these tyres. Even tho I know the Open Country ATs are a completely tyre, but I just can’t trust the company that would release these tyres to market to be conscionable.

I bought a pair of these second-hand (travelled minimal km) and whacked them on the front of my dual-cab before a road trip to the eastern states. Having read mixed reviews on here I was wary of wet weather driving. I dr... Read more > ove through the blue mountains while raining, in and out of Wollongong while raining (Illawarra highway to Moss Vale in heavy rain was a test let me tell you) and out of Canberra in very heavy rain. No issues in the wet. Had no aqua planing or nervous moments. Not sure why others have had issues but I would buy these again. Quiet and smooth on the highway. Not sure about off-road yet. They look like they'll handle a bit more than a HT tyre but time will tell.
