Hankook tires?
 
Anyone have any experience with these Hankook (265/75/16) tires?

My goal is to get some new wheels and tires. These tires are on sale and would help with getting the wheels, however, I don't want to get cheap on the tire now and pay for it later.

I have run a couple sets of Hankook tires on pickup trucks but not on the H3. They lasted really well but were a little louder than I liked. I love the Cooper tires I am running now better than anything else I have used in the past. Got 12k on em and can't tell they been on the road. Tits just gone. Quiet and look good too.

Thanks for the info. I had never heard of them personally so thats good to know. Ill check out some Coopers.

Hankook Tire’s are excellence for their ultra high performance and excellent handling characteristics and superior braking ability on both wet and dry surfaces.

I would go for an American made tire like the Coopers, BG Goodrich or Goodyears.

I am currently running what came with the Hummer from the dealer. 285/70/16s. Hankook Dynapros ATM RF10 tread pattern kinda remind me of the nitto terra grapplers. I looked them up and they run about $180 a tire for my size (285) and I think anywhere from $135-$160 for your size (265) depending on your load rating. I like them, they are quiet on the highway and have worked great in the last couple of snow storms. I have a steep hill that is combined with a hard turn that runs a half mile and the tires grip fine going up and work great with the braking system coming back down. I wouldn't consider them a cheap tire. I have only had the truck for a month and a half so I couldnt tell u anything about tread ware.
Here is an article from Four Wheeler on the tire. http://www.fourwheeler.com/techartic...est/index.html
and here is another from Petersons that said the Hankook did better the BFG and Toyo on sandy rock that is usually a great test of a tire.

I think I am gonna get the tires flipped their first rotation, not a fan of white lettering, at least not on the hummer.

Hey, what's that light on your turn signal?
