I considered it, but ultimately went with the Yokohama A/T G015 LT 265/70R17 E.

I had the Toyo A/T II, and wasn't pleased with some aspects of them. Same with the BFG A/T K02 I had. Very pleased with the Yokohama's so far in snow, wet, and on and off road.

Supposedly the Toyo A/T III's are improved over the Toyo A/T II's for wet and snow performance. So I'd choose them over the BFG's if those are the choices.

Anybody running these in P-load? How are they for off road? Weak or OK for occasional easy/moderate trails?
I know that P-load cannot be aired down below 20psi but I'm OK with this.

I have about 10k miles on my p-load 285's now. Still nice and smooth and snow performance is about the same as the 265 grabber ATX's I had on it before. I have had them in the dirt and they performed as expected. Unfortunately they are cupping pretty badly though so they are no longer quiet. I have rotated them twice. But that's simply because I had the local town fair tire (who couldn't get these to balance I took it to Toyota for a road force) can't seem to figure out how to align it. I need to get it on the rack at my work and do it myself. It's got probably a degree of negative camber on each side from the looks of it. Yet their printouts all looked to be "perfectly in spec"

+1 for the Yokos. Love these tires across the board and coming from KO2s, I can’t understand why everyone loves them so much.

Thank you!
Did you air-down them? Any mild rock-crawling experience? Do you have photo of external sidewall?

No pics and I didn't air them down. Mild rocky New England trails only. Blasted through 2 feet of unplowed snow with them for about a mile last week.

The biggest thing that impressed me about these was how good they were on the road. And that continues. Mine are a bit noisy due to a poor alignment but the handling is REALLY good for an A/T tire. And most of us spend a lot more time on the pavement than anywhere else.

I've aired mine down and took them off road but I'm not sure if I have any pics of it. If you want I can air them down tomorrow and snap a pic, just let me know what PSI you want. I ran about 17psi.

Combo sand/sharp rocks on them, no snow or rain yet

That is more than enough for me, no need to air down specifically (but thank you so much for your kindness!).

I'm impressed! These are P-rated, right? If they survived sharp rocks, I'm sold

I've read in rain they are good and in snow - meh (so as other AT), so that would be enough for me (not too much snow here in PNW).

I have some projects going on tomorrow so I'll take a pic with one down to like 17psi. The side wall tread is the only questionable area. We have some very sharp gnarly rocks out here, it's a constant issue with my mountain bike.

My tires are 285/70/r17 121/118s 10P.R. Load Range E on 8.5" rims

Ah, so they are E.
I'm right now considering P vs E.

Is on-pavement ride very stiff?

Out of curiosity - but for those running the ATIIIs, what tire pressure are you running (on the road) ?

I had a ton of stuff done all at once so it's hard to compare, but it rides great considering I have the opposite of what people suggest for a cush ride. icon stage 7 w/ kdss. I think the shop mentioned they don't sell the P loads

Right now I do 35 psi on the street but can probably go closer to 40. I've gone down to 12 psi on them but usually do about 17-18

Just quickly reporting back:

255/80/17's on Pro (sema) rims. Performance is really great on snow/ice. Look great, not noticeably louder, and ride is minimally noticeable to be stiffer/bumpier.

They do rub in reverse with wheel turned, so I'll need to do some trimming.
