We Sell More Tire Brands Than Can Be Listed — Toyo Is One of Them
Southern KY Tire Pros sells and installs Toyo tires at 1004 Happy Valley Rd in Glasgow — including the Open Country lines for trucks and SUVs and Extensa and Celsius lines for cars. If your size is not on the shelf, we can usually get it through our distributors, most of what you can find online included, and often for a better price installed.
Prices move with the distributors and depend on your exact size, so Toyo pricing here is by phone: call (270) 861-2003 or text (270) 320-7359 with your size off the sidewall — it reads like 265/70R17 — and we will quote the tire mounted, balanced, and out the door.
Every set we sell is mounted and Road Force balanced in-house, and rotations are free with any tire purchase from the shop. Our 3-year road hazard warranty — with free flat repairs and free balancing — can be added at the counter. And because alignments are a specialty here (Hunter Hawkeye Elite, 18,000-lb rack, starting at $89.99 on most vehicles), a new set can be lined up in the same visit.

Open Country Country
Toyo has been building tires in Japan since 1945, and in America its name is practically synonymous with serious truck rubber. The Open Country family is the empire: the A/T III is a severe-snow-rated all-terrain with a devoted following among drivers who actually leave the pavement, the M/T is the mud-terrain that built the brand's off-road credibility, and the R/T Trail threads between them as a rugged hybrid for trucks that want the look with better road manners.
The family rounds out with the H/T II for highway trucks and the Q/T for quiet SUV touring. Car drivers get the Extensa line for value touring and the Celsius II, an all-weather tire carrying the snowflake rating for year-round security. Toyo's performance side is real as well, and the group also fields Nitto as its American enthusiast brand — two shelves of the same house, stocked side by side at this shop.
Open Countrys on the Trucks of Barren County
Toyo's local reputation was earned on lifted and leveled trucks: the A/T III is molded in the big sizes — including the flotation fitments — that the truck scene runs, and its winter rating is a genuine bonus for Kentucky. Because this shop installs the kits and aligns the results, a Toyo fitment here starts with clearance and gearing questions answered on paper, then rubber ordered to match the truck as it will actually sit.
Installs are done the house way: mounted on the TC3500 (which handles wheels up to 26 inches), Road Force balanced, and checked on the alignment rack — free with a kit install, and always worth verifying with fresh rubber. Rotations cost nothing for the life of a set bought from us, and the road hazard plan can add three years of free flat repairs and balancing to the ticket.
Toyo Questions, Answered Straight
A/T III or R/T Trail — which suits my truck?
The A/T III is the thoroughbred all-terrain: severe-snow rated, strong on wet pavement, happiest on trucks that travel. The R/T Trail trades a little of that polish for a more aggressive, mud-leaning design and tougher looks. If your truck tows or commutes far, take the A/T III; if it plays harder than it works, the R/T earns its keep.
Toyo or Nitto — are they the same company?
They are sister brands under the Toyo group, aimed at slightly different buyers: Toyo is the broad line with deep touring and highway coverage, Nitto is the enthusiast label concentrated on trucks and performance. In many sizes we can quote both, and the better tire depends on the model, not the family tree.
How loud is the Open Country M/T on the road?
Honest answer: you will hear it, as with any true mud-terrain, and it will wear faster than the all-terrains if most miles are highway. For trucks that genuinely hunt mud it earns every decibel. For everyone else, the A/T III or R/T Trail delivers most of the ability with far better manners.
Is the Celsius II a real winter-capable tire?
Yes — it carries the three-peak mountain snowflake as a true all-weather design, which makes it a smart one-set choice for cars and crossovers in south-central Kentucky. It will not match a dedicated winter tire on glare ice, but for our slush and freeze-thaw cycle it covers the year honorably.
