  • I met a full-timer in a Wal-Mart parking that was fueling his truck from a tank in the bed of the truck. He was pulling doubles with boat behind his fifth wheel. The gentleman was on a return trip from Alaska. He told me that he had bought new Hercules tires in Fairbanks. I inspected the construction note on the side of the tire and reported that they had the nylon cap construction. The tires looked like they were heavily loaded. I suspect that was from the full-timer use.

  • 2 years on my Chinese Duruns and they still look brand new. I do run a tpms system to monitor them. I also work at a tire shop
  • I put this tire on my trailer back in April. Put 7600 miles on them this summer and they still look new. I went to a large local tire/repair shop that services trucks, MH's and RV's and this is the only trailer tire they sell.
  • Last 3 sets of tires have been Hercules ST
    I run 65 psi and put on about 12K miles/3 yrs before I change then
    out for a new set
    So far absolutely no problems

  • I run Hercules on my trailers and have had great luck with them.
  • Just purchased these from Tires Plus because the load D just don't hold up to Florida heat. Hoping for the best. Price wasn't to bad either.
