You will find that the 2015 limited rim is a bit of an odd size, so your options may be limited. Toyo Open Country AT does have a size that fits. Very popular truck tire.

Where did you get them for that price? I'm seeing them at Costco for $761 right now.

Yea, the wife has 19” wheels...thought the 20s would diminish ride quality.

I’ve never had any issues with Discount Tire and they have a very good warranty.

Where are you located?

Hebert Tire & Auto in Lafayette - Toyo & Firestone/Bridgestone dealer

Stay local... Everyone complains about big corporations taking everything over and then recommends Walmart and Costco for tires - the employees are paid minimum, so don't be surprised with sub par work.

Have these on a Toyota Sequoia 60K, still gave a good bit of tread left.
Just put a set on my Ram 1500 Big Horn.

Never had any luck with Goodyear.

You can’t go wrong with Michelin Defender. Yes it costs more up front. But as long as you keep them rotated and balanced they’ll give the best value for your dollar. They ride excellent and have great traction on wet roads. There are some areas in life you can go cheap and save some money. But when it comes to tires, you get what you pay for.

They do this?


Yep, It's about $100 to have all four mounted and balanced and the old tires disposed of.

We have a 2015 4Runner limited. What are some good tires for the money, and the best place to buy them? Thanks.


There's your problem right there.

Toyota's are known for needing new tires - sometimes as often as every 45,000 miles.

These are definitely worth a look. On two different SUV’s that I owned, replaced a set of Goodyear & Bridgestone with the LTX. Improved handling and performance and good tread life.

I replaced Bridgestones with Michelin LTX MS have just under 18k on them, very little wear and great in heavy rain with AWD, and have had good experience in snow. Discount Tire has sales on them a few times per year. Whether or not you get 70k on them is an unknown but I bet they are good to 60k if rotated, etc.
