TIRES 22,5
I drive 3 to 4 thousand miles a year. I am replacing 5 year old Michelin XZE 255/70/22.5. The Winn. D.P. calls for 255/80/22.5. 80s are not as easy to replace on the road 70s run fine.
Looking at HERCULES Strong Guard HRA. 6 tires, 2 axle mechanical balance, new steel extended valve stems for my TPMS. 7 year warranty.
OUT THE DOOR $2986.00.
Michelins would be just the tires with some BEAD or SILICA SAND balancing $4025. and another shop $3995. Neither of these shops would look at brakes inspection or anything.
HERCULES TIRES are by Cooper out of OHIO.
QUESTION....What do you think on these tires? Saving $1000. Looking for a smooth, quiet ride. Coopers on my Camry are not.
Any ideas or experience appreciated. Michelin $525 per tire. Hercules $345 per tire. Reviews are good on them.
LASTLY...What is the main difference or safety issue going from a 70 to an 80 type tire?
THANK YOU
