I purchased tires.

I figured I'd start a new thread about this.

So talking with my dealer telling him I don't want to spend $3k plus on tires. I have a kid in college and really don't care if they are brand name or not. I purchased a set of the same brand he uses on his big wreckers.

I know I'm opening a can of worms to some but I understand we all have our opinions.

I've waited to post this until I put some milage on so I could be honest on the quality so far. I've put over 1500 miles and I have seen/felt/heard no difference so far.

I purchased the Hercules brand. I paid $289 each. They are working great so far.

I replaced the front two with toyo. Unless I hear differently on this forum, I'll consider Hercules.

TaterColo,

This is an interesting thread, keep it going.
Are they the same exact size as the one you replaced?

GOOD LUCK

I love reading tire threads.....lol....pun intended.

Sooooo many different opinions on tires and tire pressures. Sounds like you are pleased with the tires, so your decision for yourself is correct.
