I recently bought a hilux with worn 32's on it, getting new tyres today and have gone for 31's as I do a lot of km's on the road (don't need extra clearance there) to get better mileage and cheaper tyres.

I used to have a set of 31".

I really liked them. I don't know about longevity(didn't have them too long), but they handled well.

I don't remember about any excessive road noise.

Only reason I got rid of them is that I went to 33"

If they come out in 33" I would buy them.

We've sold quite a few MT764s, they certainly look to have more open tread and not much sipping. Haven't had much feedback either way on them.

Looks like the 33's are closer to 32 which is a shame :( . I might have to stick to the 762...
