Hercules Tires

[geomahon]

Haw anyone had experience with Hercules tires? The tire dealer has been recommended by another RV owner and has good reviews on Google. The dealer suggest Hercules tires. Any opinions?

I've had two sets on my TV, put over 100K kilometers (about 80,000 miles) on each set. The tread wore evenly, I usually rotated every 10,000 Km. The ride was as good as the OEM Michelins. I would buy them again.

My error. The tires are recommended for the RV.....any input is greatly appreciated.

After lots of research, I ended up putting 6, e rated Hercules tires on my rig. They are a company that doesn't actually mfg, but has several facilities make them as a private label.
They are made in China and you'll hear many opinions I'm sure.
You can tell they are Chineese made, because that imprint is in the bead and only seen when dismounted. Kinda weird they don't show that on the sidewall?
My local tire guy that I've had good success with says they really are a decent tire.
Less then 2 yrs on them and so far...knock on wood.

thanks for the encouraging words. My dealer is quoting around $500. for four.

I think $500 is a good price, what is the tire size...

X2..If that includes stem, mounting, balance, and disposal that is a good price.

You must have the higher steel insert type stems. Also check to see if they are e rated 10 ply, or the d rated, 8 ply.
There is a bit of a price difference.
