Received Quote on Hankook & Toyo Tires
Did a search and been reading about Hankook & Toyo Tires for the MH.
Not sure how long these tires have been on the market. Reading good reports on Hankook.
How has your long term use of Hankook and/or Toyo Tires worked out.
Have they met your expectations.
Here is the quote I received:
The prices and availability are as follows: Mounted/balanced
HANKOOK……….AH/11 A/P 245/70R19.5 …14 PLY………………DRIVE OUT PRICE FOR (1) TIRE IS $344.78 (tax included)
TOYO……………….M143 AP HWY 245/70R19.5….16 PLY…………DRIVE OUT PRICE FOR (1) TIRE IS $384.63 (tax
Price seems to be competitive, and I like the Tire Company....

both of those prices seem high and no one buys just one tire.
4 Toyo M143's mounted and balanced and installed with new stems, disposal of old tires and a GOOD regional tire distributor behind them (Les Schwab) was about $1200.
2 Bridgstone 250F's mounted and balanced and installed with new stems, disposal of old tires and a soso local tire shop behind them was about $700.
Alignment and F/E work is NOT included.

Hmm.. things have changed alittle.. I was going through the paperwork, and in 1999, in Texas, 6 Goodyear G159's where $1226 mounted, balanced, stems, etc... Where has prices gone?
(The G159's are no longer on there, thank God)

I just installed 6 Sumitomo's for $1885.00 Mounted, balancing beads and tax. I have to get rid of the tires. Anyone need a free spare?
OBTW - I your looking at 245/75/22.5 not 24/70/22.5
The 245/75 is .3" smaller diameter than the 235/80 and a 255/75 is .2" larger in diameter.

The price on the Toyo's seems a little high. I just purchased 4 of the exact same tire in August to replace the original equipment Michelins. Out the door price for all four was just under $1200. This price included mounting, balancing, new stems and disposal fee for the old tires. Purchase was in California.
I have only one trip on the Toyo's and have no complaints. I can tell no difference in the ride from the Michelins, even though the Toyo's have a stiffer sidewall than the previous tires. I have Michelin XZE tires on the front. I have also heard good things about the Hankook tires, but have no expierience with them.

Paid $1810 out the door 7/09 for 6 - 245\75\22.5 TOYO's. They have been good tires so far.
The only negative is they smell like your black holding tank for quite awhile.

You need to change your diet if your black smell like rubber...

Tire prices have increased nearly 20% since then.

Toyo & Hancook have been around for some time. Many commercial truck fleets use both. Lately Hancook has become a major player in the 19.5 tire market as they are less expensive then B-Stone, etc.

Toyo M 143 245/70 R19.5 136/134M 16PR - $ 307.40

AH11 245/70 R19.5 136/134M 14PR - $ 276.90
http://ssl.delti.com/cgi-bin/rshop.p...&nichtweiter=1
$34 - $36 per tire mounted... $41 per tire shipped to my location, so about $350 per tire for the Hankooks.. TireRack doesnt seem to carry them. So, looks like your at the mercy of the locals, which doesnt seem to be that bad.
