Our verdict on the Toyo Open Country H/T II
The Toyo Open Country H/T II reads as a pavement-first highway all-season in this dataset: quiet, settled highway manners tops its profile at 9/10 with tread life at 9/10, for a 6.7/10 blend across the seven all-round axes. That shape is a specialist's: mud clearing bottoms out at 1/10 and trail bite sits at 3/10 — an 8-point gap the headline number never sees, since neither axis feeds it, and the dataset flags it when trail capability is the priority. It stops at the M+S marking rather than the 3PMSF symbol; as a premium-tier option it sits at #38 of 50 overall and 3rd of 4 highway all-seasons, is catalogued in 10 Tacoma sizes on 16- through 18-inch wheels, and rests on 3 cited sources. Its lead use cases are quiet daily driving and wet roads, one place behind the Continental TerrainContact H/T in our ranking.

| Axis | What it covers | Score | In blend |
|---|---|---|---|
| Road comfort | pavement ride quality and noise | 9/10 | Yes |
| Wet grip | traction on wet pavement | 8/10 | Yes |
| Snow | packed snow and winter road traction | 5/10 | Yes |

| Mud | deep mud traction and self-cleaning | 1/10 | No |
| Durability | puncture and sidewall resistance | 6/10 | Yes |
| Tread life | expected mileage before replacement | 9/10 | Yes |
| Efficiency | weight and rolling resistance | 9/10 | No |
| Looks | how aggressive the tread and sidewall read | 4/10 | No |
| Value | what the tire delivers per dollar | 7/10 | Yes |
7 of the ten axes feed the blended number (road comfort, wet grip, snow, trail, durability, tread life, and value); mud, efficiency, and looks are shown for the Toyo Open Country H/T II but sit outside it, which is why a mud or looks score can run well above or below the headline.

Tacoma sizes the Toyo Open Country H/T II comes in
The catalog behind this dataset records the Toyo Open Country H/T II in 10 sizes that fit common Tacoma wheel diameters, spanning 16-inch, 17-inch, and 18-inch wheels. Of those, 9 have a Tacoma fitment page on this site, linked below.
Those 10 entries are the dataset's own availability list for the Toyo Open Country H/T II, not a live retailer feed — a model with a thin catalog gets a short list here rather than a padded one. What actually clears on your truck still depends on wheel width, offset, and how much trimming you will accept, so check the size against your generation before you buy.

Toyo Open Country H/T II on a Tacoma: common questions
In our editorial synthesis the Toyo Open Country H/T II blends to 6.7/10 across the seven all-round axes, which places it 3rd of 4 highway all-seasons and #38 of 50 in the whole research set. Its case rests on quiet, settled highway manners (9/10) and tread life (9/10), so it suits quiet daily driving, wet roads, and long tread life.
The research catalog records the Toyo Open Country H/T II as offered in 10 sizes that fit common Tacoma wheel diameters: 245/75R16, 265/70R16, 265/75R16, 245/70R17, 265/65R17, 265/70R17, 265/60R18, 265/65R18, 275/65R18, and 265/70R18. That is the dataset's own availability list rather than a live retailer feed, so confirm the exact size and load range with the seller before ordering.
The Toyo Open Country H/T II carries the M+S marking but not the 3PMSF severe-snow symbol, and our synthesis scores its snow axis at 5/10. If your state or your commute requires a severe-snow-rated tire, this is not the row to pick.
The weakest marks in the Toyo Open Country H/T II's profile are mud clearing at 1/10 and trail bite at 3/10. The dataset flags it as the wrong choice when trail capability is the priority and a 3PMSF severe-snow rating is required. Those judgements come from the 3 cited sources listed on this page, not from anything measured here.
