hankook dynapros

[digglesworth]

So what's the concensus? I've been trying to decide on which tires I should go with? I think I've narrowed it down between the nitto trail grapplers and the hankook dynapro mt... I seem to be finding the prices of the hankooks are less than the nittos... I'm most likely going with a 315/70/17... Anyone have any feedback or perhaps picks of these on their rigs?

we have hankook tires on are optima and there really good, i abuse them every once in a while around corners, they handle it!

I'm a service manager at a hankook/Goodyear commercial tire dealership and hankooks are by far superior. I have heard nothing but bad reviews on nittos. Noisy and wear fast. We have the hankook dynapro a/t's on all 5 of our services trucks and they are amazing!

I've heard negative feedback about the MTs not being siped...

Funny you should start a similar thread to mine... http://www.hummer4x4offroad.com/forum/showthread.php?5911-Another-damn-Tire-Thread


I think I'm gonna go with the Hankook Dynapro ATMs..I've research everywhere on all the most popular tires and brands..everything keeps coming back to the Hankook and for the money they are the best choice IMO... http://www.onlinetires.com/products...%2F75-16+hankook+dynapro+a%2Ft+rf10++owl.html

You should give the Kumho M\T a look. I love mine. Road noise isn't bad at all. I got a great deal from Discount Tire Direct. They have been on about 15000 miles and have been I rotate them each oil change. They drive great.

UPDATE:

I just ordered my Hankook tires from this place.. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/d...3?pc=10839&tmn=DynaPro+ATM+RF10&typ=Truck/SUV

...I called and talked to "Jake" and he gave me a sweet deal over the phone...$700.00 total cost, included shipping, for these LT285/75/R16 DynaPro AMT RF-10.

I started out at $756.00, then after talking a while, it went to $717.00, then a few minutes later, he said he would do me a favor and went to $700.00..I think it was a sweet deal..

 

[digglesworth]

That is a pretty sweet deal... I'm assuming that's for 4 and not 5.... I'm lookinhmg at getting MTs... Wonder what kind of deal they can cut on those.... For 5...

Yes that was for 4 at $175/ea...But I have always had real good luck or deals with these folks at Discount tire Direct, by calling in and just being nice and pleasant and prestty soon they start cutting me a really good deal..I know they are still making money, but their prices has beat every retailer in town..Now all I have to do is find a good tire shop to mount and balance them..(I will be getting a road force balance, as that is a true balance with the wheel.)

I have the Hankook Dynapro MTs (RT03) on my h1. size: 37x12.5x17 only put about 700 miles or so on them

They're great. super quiet on the road. aired down to 30 to play in the dunes (thought I was below 25). got stuck a few times but that was because i didn't air down enough. played out in Gorman (Hungry Valley SVRA in California). didn't even air down from about 42 PSI, lost traction a few times. But going from high locked to low locked solved most of the traction issues.

Got em on and they are Awesome..looks good and rides sweet with no road noise....I would highly recommend these for the average driver..I don't do any off roading, so all my miles are on pavement..but I wanted the Aggressive look still..and these Hankook ATM, R-10 fit the bill.

 

[Dennis]

In case anyone is interested in what the Hankooks look like on the H3...

Oh BTW..I'm torn..the tire is max pressure rated at 80 psi...I like to run a little firm..so I'm trying 42 psi out to check wear and sidewall stiffness...any thoughts and recommendations based on the max pressure rating?
Thanks

I usually run 35 in my ATs. I've heard of people running as low as 30 to as high as 80. Some shops will only pay attention to that max rating and fill them to that... That's way to high though. I think it's a personal preference as long as they are wearing evenly...

That's me..whatever feels good with even tread wear..I think I'll back off to 40 psi and see how it goes from there...the ride is still nice at 40.
