225/70/16 Hankook Dynapro ATm
Just picked up a set a few days ago due to the insane weather here (Pittsburgh) lately. -38 windchill last night and snow somehow keeps falling.
First impression...this is a DAMN good all terrain tire.
I did a couple tests to see how they handle ice/snow. I have a nice hill with a fairly steep grade on one part of my street and because I live on a cul de sac, they don't plow/salt when weather is bad. I came to a complete stop on the hill and gave it moderate gas. They didn't even hesitate to bite and go.
The only thing I could see as a downfall is they obviously have more road noise compare to an all season. Doesn't bother me one bit though.
I read guys on the Tacoma forums getting 50k+ out of these and still having 5/32nds left. If that's the case on the RX...I'll buy another set!

Bought my car used and they came with hankooks, good tire.. Unfortunately mine got dry rot from the previous owner not driving it enough and leaving it outside in florida.. I then traded my dry rotted 16s for rx330 18s at a salvage yard for 500 bucks, with better tires..

I've used this stuff for awhile to help with dry rot issues (protect from dry rot).
