Hercules Tires

I've read some old, but good, comments on Hercules. Anyone out there with recent experience.

I am replacing my Mich XZE 235/80R 22.5....all 6.

I was just told that the Hercules 902, described as 255/70R 22.5, is a good replacement for the Michelins. The quote for 6, mounted and balanced...$1856.34.

Soooo, any newer comments on the Hercules? I'm inclined to give them a try.

    Thing is, you'll only be buying a tire at these prices and not a big name with this genuine Chinese brand.
    I'm running four 225/70 19.5 on the drive axle that have been all over the country in the last few years or so and so far so good. Guess what, they even have a US DOT number on the sidewalls, indicating that they have been approved for our nation's highways.
    I bought them for a good bit less than two hundred bucks on Amazon and had them mounted by a local tire shop.
