Toyo 325/70R17 A/T vs. Yokohama Geolander 315/70R17 AT/S

Has anyone run both of these tires? Are the Toyo's worth $150 more per tire?

I have run both tires, just not on the same truck. Had the geolanders on an old Dakota and thought they were a good tire. Decent on snow, great for standing water on roadways, long mileage. Just replaced the Toyo AT's on my current truck (with the MT's) and thought they were great also. Only got 35k out of them, but i wouldn't expect the geo's to last any longer on a diesel. Decent in the snow, alright in the rain.

I would check the weight rating on each. I thought the larger size Toyo AT's like the 325's were only D rated. Not sure about the Geolanders, but i personally would stick with an E rated tire, which is why i went with the MT for a larger size. If both are D rated, IMO the toyos are probably not worth the eztra $$ unless you really want 325's.

I know Paul (PTGarcia) had a set of the Toyo's in the size you are inquiring about and his current set are 37" Yokohama Geolanders. You might PM him and get his opinion.
