What are you looking for in an all-terrain tire? Ideally, you’d like a tire that’s durable enough to go off-road with confidence, but one that’s also still civilized on pavement, with good road manners, strong handling and braking performance, plus low noise and a comfortable ride. The ideal all-terrain tire would be designed for great traction in mud, sand, gravel, loose dirt, and other off-road conditions, but would also be rated for winter traction. You’d probably also be looking for long, even wear, internal construction that delivers resilience and good stability at highway speed, and a generous treadwear warranty.
That’s quite a list of expectations, when you see it all laid out that way. Is it too much to hope for in a tire? Well, the Toyo Open Country A/T III is a good candidate to meet all of those expectations.
So is this the tire you’re looking for? Let’s take a closer look with this Toyo Open Country A/T III review.
Features and Benefits
Here’s a few of the features and benefits that make the Toyo Open Country A/T III a great value in an all-terrain tire for light trucks, Jeeps, SUVs, and crossovers:
- Advanced rubber compound is cut-and-chip resistant and provides solid wet-weather handling and braking properties
- Evenly-distributed void area in the tread is designed for traction in a wide variety of conditions, with good self-cleaning of mud, snow, slush, gravel, debris
- Casing is designed for extra reinforcement and rigidity on tread blocks for improved handling and high-speed stability
- Lateral grooves and 3D sipes for hundreds of extra biting edges to deliver good wet-weather traction for cornering, braking, acceleration
- Stone ejectors built into tread grooves promote self-cleaning for consistent traction and to protect the casing from damage
- Staggered shoulder lugs boost lateral traction off-road
- Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rated for severe winter service
- Available in P-Metric and LT Metric sizes, and with a flotation design
- Outlined white letter sidewall, on select sizes, for stylish looks
- Sizes up to 22” for a wide range of fitments

SimpleTire’s view on Toyo Open Country A/T III tires
If you’re looking for a tire that’s tough and durable with dependable, consistent traction in a wide variety of off-road situations, the Toyo Open Country A/T III might be just what you need.
This is a tire that’s great on wet or dry pavement as well, with good stability and on-center road manners on the highway. The outlined white letter sidewall option lends a classic look to a wide variety of trucks and SUVs, and the Toyo Open Country A/T III’s 50,000 (or 65,000) mile treadwear coverage is hard to beat. Additionally, the Open Country A/T III’s Three Peak Mountain Snowflake rating isn’t exactly easy to come by – the tire industry sets the bar pretty high for that winter certification – but it means you can count on this tire to get you through deep snow and slush in the dead of winter.
Yes, the Toyo Open Country A/T III is a little on the noisy side, but that’s to be expected with many all-terrain tires. We feel that the pluses of this next-generation all-terrain tire for light trucks and SUVs far outweigh the negatives, and that you’ll be happy with the Open Country A/T III if you’re in the market for an all-terrain tire.

Previously tried the Falken at4, returned then for these Toyo AT3. Toyos are more quite, feel more stable and in snow way out preform the Falken. Almost as good in snow as other snow tires we have on another car. 285 55 22 size tires. Highly recommend if you can get them on sale. There is a reason for their reputation.
