All 6 on mine are Toyo's. Nothing bad at all to say about them.

Much cheaper than Michelins.

Might have a hard time finding some right now with the supply issue we're having.

Hi, I am very happy with our Toyo's. They show a little faster wear than Michelin but not enough to worry about. they will age out first. About 26,000 mi. and look great.

I have Toyo tires on my Magna 630. Put them on about a year and a half ago. have put nearly 8000 miles on since then, couldn't be happier

I just put a set of Bridgestone’s on mine. About 700 miles on them so far. Seem to handle good. Normal amount of tire pressure increased during the day.

We’re $26 more than the Tokyo’s and highly recommended by the tire shop over Toyo.

8 Toyos I bought in 14 and I’ll probably replace with the same , based on availability , before we leave our winter base in April/May. Almost 60,000 miles on them. About 2/3-3/4 tread left with no sidewall cracks ( they look new ) I did not cover them at all as we have been full time and on the move over 5 of those 7 years. Ride as well as the cracked 5 year old Michelins I had removed after I bought the rig. I hear good things about others but Toyos have met the test for me.

In 195,000 miles, I have had the original Toyos, Goodyear G670, and Michelin. The Toyos were fine but to me they rode pretty hard and were noisy. The Goodyears rivered and nothing could be done to stop it plus I thought they were to soft of a ride and didn't handle very well. Those were replaced with the Michelin and I am happy with those. Been using the XZA2 and whatever the new model is and haven't experienced any sidewall cracking at all. It could be because I use the coach on a regular basis ans rolling the tires causes the emoluments in the tire to be active enough to protect it.

Toyo M154 tires on our Bay Star since 2018 and they have performed well. When replacements are needed, I would go with Toyo again.

Thanks to all for your input on the Toyo Tires.

Last April I needed to replace my Michelin tires due to age, no cracking or any other issues. Due to availability I went with Toyo 295/80/22.5, recommended size for my Coach. Not happy with them on steer axle. As soon as replaced noticed steering waunders, stiffer ride. Had 4 wheel alignment and checked all bushings, rods ect in suspension. Tried different psi to see if change. Just back from 13,000 mile trip. Still same issues. Toyo and dealer gave no help for replacing or trade in on other brand.
As soon as other brands become available I will be switching to other brand steer tires.

I run Continentals, and I like them. Nice ride and quiet. HSR2-SA up front, HSR2 and HSR3 on drive, tag.

Toyo makes good tires and i have some that have been in service for 20 plus years on some low mile class 8s without a problem. We do limit the older tires to rear only. Goodyears have seemed to act odd with tread wear so we have phased them out completely. Bridgstone seems to be whats coming on the new rigs but again were seeing some odd tread wear on the rears. On any critical rigs like the heavy hauls at 105000 were using michelines.My first coach had toyos and i switched to michelin at 6 or 7 years. Current coach had michelin and replaced with the same.
There is no right or wrong answer but my gut tells me Michelin for a steer tire on a motorhome.
