Default Hankook tires?

Who is or has run Hankook mud terrains or all terrains? I have seen a couple rigs running them lately and I think they are both really good looking tires. I have looked on their website and you can get them in a LOAD RANGE E which I want. If anyone can give me so info on them like how they wear and how many miles you got out of them that would be great. Thanks in advance.

I just looked at a set yesterday myself. I went originally to look at the Toyo and Nitto's. I was told that the Toyo's aren't very good anymore. They are having QC issues and several tires have been out of round. I can't substantiate this though.

The sales guy was quite strong on the Handkook's. They are supposedly a little less then the other tires mentioned. They have a great road riding tread. If you are a heavy offroader then I'd be looking at something with a stronger tread.

I am also interested in reviews of this tire.

i got a set of the ATM on my 01 2500 cummins, 315x75r16, i got about 10,000 miles so far and they still look brand new, i like them alot, they are pretty quiet too, but its hard to hear tires over a straight piped cummins and a loud stereo anyways.

I have a set of ATM 315-70-17 and I love them. They are quit on the road and the fronts look new after 17k. The rear show a slight wear on them from towing my boat alot of those miles. They also were highly recomended by two diff tire shops and I now also recomend them! Great tires! My old boss ran the old MT's and i didnt like them and he now has the new (cool looking) MT's and they are the quitest mud tires I have heard!

around here hankooks are on most pickups. the atm are well mannered in all types of terrean, and last a long time. the mud terrans, ware evenly, but dont last as long. bout a year is all a buddy of mine got out of his. 75% of the time he has a trailer hooked to it pulling hay in the summer every day.

Default Hankook pics

I was sent a PM and asked a few questions about lift on my truck and clearance and tried to reply back, but do not have enough posts to answer it. So I thought I would just go ahead and post some pics and answers here. I have a 4 3/4" lift on the front end and used some smaller blocks on the rear end to make it level. It does not rub using 315-70-17. The tires a have 17k on them and only show very small amounts of wear on the rear. These tires a very quiet and have a good ride. Hope this helps out!
