Default New Tires

Ok i have 285/75 r16 nitto terra grapplers on my truck....they should last me a year or more cuz i dont do alot of driving. maybe they will last all through college idk but i was lookin at the Toyo MT's and really like them. I want an opinion on these and how long do they last if you only drive an estimate of 5000 to 20,000 miles a year. Do they handle well on the road? Are they as strong as the BF Goodrich A/t's? I want a mean lookin tire. I wish i could get rims too but i dnt have that kind of $! If you have suggestions on other tires list them out.

i wouldnt say the toyo's would go 60k miles especially since there are so many variables for tire wear but i agree that the toyo is a good tire.
