Description

The Toyo Observe G3-ICE is a factory studded (for some sizes) winter tire for passenger cars, crossovers, light trucks and SUVs.

The Toyo Observe G3-ICE was designed to handle the challenges of winter. Its advanced directional tread design is ready for snowy or icy roads while providing superior ride comfort.

The Observe G3-ICE features several technological design advances such as “sawtooth” block edges and “multi-corrugated” sipes that provide more road bites throughout the winter. The V-shaped center rib with a horizontal slat improves water or slush evacuation while increasing stability at high speeds.

Optimized stud hole design offers stud retention and improved acoustic comfort.

Pieces of walnut shells incorporated into the compound improve braking efficiency and traction on packed snow and ice. Why walnut shells? In addition to being environmentally friendly, walnut particles are one of the hardest natural materials in the world.

A higher volume of silica and a better distribution of silica in the mix allows for increased flexibility when the temperature drops and improves wet and braking traction.

I ordered a set of rims for my car. PMC offered a good selection at good prices. A lot better than anywhere locally for me. One of the rims arrived without the centre cap, and when I contacted you about it, a new cap was sent out quickly. The rims look great and I am very happy with the great customer service.

OMG for PMC and American Racing! I ordered 5 wheels to be made up with American Racing rims and Falken Wildpeak tires, and they were shipped quickly and fit my Jeep perfectly. Over the next several months, the rims started showing some blemishes and PMC and American Racing went out of their way to fix the problem. Could not be happier! Katherine was very helpful - and so were Daniel and Elaine.

Ordered 18" Fuel Vapours with 285 70r18 Toyo AT3's on a Friday. They were at my door the following Friday assembled and balanced. I had em installed that afternoon and had them in the mud while hunting the next morning. 100% would purchase from PMC again.
