[QUOTE="Taylorman55, post: 41661, member: 1290"] The Hercules were some of the best tires I have ever owned. They had nearly 60k on them with near 20% tread left, lots of gravel road time too. They wore amazing, were amazing on the highway, good in snow. They were average on this pickup on ice, and overall not the greatest in mud. I just wanted something with a little more "bite" as Im slowly transitioning this pickup in the next year to my all out hunting rig (front locker, winch etc). Im going to give these Generals a couple thousand miles and see how they work, or if they break in a bit. Im hooking up the bumper pull with 3 big horses tonight and heading towards the interstate to see how they handle. Ill keep ya in the loop. But Im actually starting to think a 235/85 Hercules may be an option here shortly. Or I should have just manned up and got a set of 255/85 16 Toyo M55's. ;:;banghead [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] I def. do not want to go back to a 245/75 that I had.
