Has anyone had any experience with the new Hercules H-901 14 ply tires? I currently have a 2014 Heartland Gateway 3650BH that has 235/85/16 Powerking Towmax 10 ply tires and I have been reading some really bad things about them. I am looking for some feedback because we are taking a trip in a few weeks and I really am worried about my tires and had been looking into the Goodyear G614 but someone mentioned the Hercules and they are alot cheaper. Would really like to know what everyones thoughts are?

I can't tell you about Hercules, but I am pretty sure ANY 14 ply tire is an improvement from 10 ply blowmax. Most people on this site recommend Goodyear G614 14 ply, but they are priceym 1500/4. Sailun 14 ply gets next best recommendation. I bought 12 ply Carlisle RH. Others upgrade a
To 17.5 inch rims, another more pricey option, tires and wheels.

I have Hercules Load Stars in Load Range "F". They've been on the trailer for a bit over a year and no issues yet. I've only put about 5000 miles on them so far. I had G614's prior and had no issues in the 5 years they were on the trailer untli last spring when I blew both tires on the door side. I felt they met their fate on a large pothole on Hwy 95 near Charleston.
The Hercules run 95psi and don't seem to increase as much in pressure while traveling as the Goodyears did. Probably due to how they differ in construction?
