Default Replacing Michelin 235/80R22.5 Tires

I need to replace set of six Michelins on our 2005 Sun Voyager. Anyone have advice as to any substitutes for these. Toyo's maybe?

Default toyo tires

When I bought my 2000 Sun Voyager in 2015 it needed tires, and my local truck tire store recommended Toyo tires. They ran quiet, and the front needed NO weights when they checked the balance on a "road force" type balance machine. The rear had the "sand" in them, and they recommended that type balance for the rears.

We went with TOYOs also 245/75/22.5 (M154). They are quiet and ride nice.

I have Michelins that I put on 2 years ago and love. Wondering what's motivated you to change?

$$ is the primary reason I considered switching. I haven't really heard or read anything negative about the Toyo's so I'm likely going in that direction. Thanks to everyone for your input. Next up is a steering stabilizer that the previous owner recommended but never got around to installing.

The cost for one I paid less than $2000.00 for mine. We run Toyos on our dump trucks and get great wear on them. I also mount and demount tires myself.
