hanook tires

Are they any good or are they chinese bombs? The above F250 son is looking at has new hanooks

I run Hankooks on a 3/4 ton ford van that I use for work and find that they are very durable tires, I have around 45000 miles on them, they were on the truck when I got it new. They still have lots of tread and look good. I rotate them every 5000 miles religiously. The only problem I have found with them is it is very important to keep the pressures up in them or you find yourself all over the road. They seem to want to go where ever they want, kind of spooky but all I do is check the pressures and if I find one low because of a leak or something just by a few lbs when I fix the problem then they drive good again. They are a very stiff riding tire also. For my money I would go with the Michelin's a much better tire JMHO

Restez, the truck my son may buy has a new set of hanooks on it. Are they made in China and would you tow with them. Ray

I think they started in Korea but now are listed as a European tire with some made in China, Korea even Brazil so they are a foreign tire. I would not have any problem using them on the tow vehicle just maintain the pressures closely as I stated in the earlier post. They have a much better record I think than the China Bomb Goodyear Marathons. I trust them on my van which carries a lot of weight.

Hi
I think the Hankook tire is made in Korea.
I had the G614 put on our Montana August of 2009. I haven’t had to put air in them since. We pulled that trailer 20,000 miles last summer.

The G614's are great tires just a little pricey I think but yopu get what you pay for.
