hurcules M/T want your opinions

I finished my front end work and im about to put on two new front tires Im getting a good price on some hercules 33x12.5-15s.

I want to know if anyone has had good/bad experience with these?

what I have heard from a few of my heep (jeep) freinds are good things. Anyone with experience running them?

Never used the 33's, but the 32's and 31's are great tires. For offroad, I also like the general grabbers, the certainly do grab...they are cheap, but wear out fast.

I've had them on my 4Runner for almost 4 years now, and I couldn't be happier. I've taken my Runner with open diffs the same places as jeeps on 35's. They wear good on the road if rotated properly (still more than half tread with over 35,000 km on them. Not real loud on the road. The only real draw back is they are not sipped, but I haven't had an issue with them in the winter.

You will find that you need to run them a bit lower PSI to get a flat footprint. I run 30 PSI, but mine are on stock rims, so you may not need to (not too sure) I paid $145 per tire installed (brand new right from Herculese here in Belleville On), and for the money I think they are a hell of a deal.

Good buy, congrats...


(pay no attention to the date on this pic, wifes new camera wasn't set up - it was Sept 05)

Looks like another BFG KM knockoff... Like my Kumhos.

Its a proven tread pattern that does very well as an on/of road mud tire.

Got them on today then took the truck to the stealership for a free recall alignment since I put in new tie rods and idler arm earlyer this week.

Maybe I can test them this weekend its supposed to rain so perfect timing,just need to get a new spring for one of my hubs..........

I also read a good review of them here http://www.4wheeloffroad.com/techart...est/index.html and also explains where there from but I cant trust a review from someone who drives a heep .....i mean jeep
