x2 on Toyos, 52,000 miles, and the main reason mine need replaced are because my ball joints wore them improperly, otherwise I would not doubt 55,000 - 60,000 miles out of these. I average 20k miles a year but for the last year I have had a daily driven car. so it has saved them some life.
Best photo I have to compare brand new to 52k miles.
I have heard the Nitto Trail Grapplers are just as good, but oddly they cost a bit more due to the hype of the name and the many positive reviews on Trail Grapplers. That tire is nothing more than a re-vamped Toyo Open Country M/T but is made out to be as just as good of quality as its sibling.

well if you have a daily driver you could go to a mud terrain if you really needed it. the all terrain will do fine, but if you can take the hit in mpg the mud terrain will look and perform better.
are you dead set on a 34? some sizes will get you closer to a 33 which will help the lose in power and mpg. i ran 275/70/18 toyo mts for a while which is 33x11x18 and loved those tires.
either way, stick with toyo, you wont be sorry

I really like my Maxxis Bighorns I use for my mud set. They are loud as hell, probably because they were already chopped up and cupped a bit when I bought them. Great in the mud though. I have friends that swear by their Firestone Destination MT's
