35,500 miles and counting on my Hankooks. They are very quiet and excellent handling. Go for it!


I want to leave this earth quietly in my sleep like my grandfather and not like the hysterical, screaming passengers riding in granddad's RV just before the big crash.

I put a set of LT Hankooks on my 30' toy hauler to replace the stock tires. They came recommended by Discount Tire. So far no problems. They tow very good.


Which Hankooks did you install?

I am looking at the Hankook DynaPro ATm RF10 for both my TV and Trailer. Can't beat the price and all the reviews are excellent.

I had them put on my 27 ft. Class C and the rig squirreled all over the road......Had them taken off and went back to Michelin LTs. I liked the price but not the ride.

They are Hankook LT225-75R/16 E-rated(10-ply) DynaPro AS(Hwy tread) on my WW FSC2800. That's a big upgrade from the stock ST225-75R/15s that were stock. I was having blow out problems with the STs. I have Nitto Terra Grapplers on the truck, LT305-50R/20s (33s).

I put 6 of the AH-12's on my class A and love them. Last year we averaged 1 MPG better than the year before.

At last, a definitive answer, based on personal experience, from someone who has actually put them on a Class-C. It's beyond me why the OP didn't post this in the Class-C forum...or why perhaps a moderator didn't move it there where the OP might have gotten more germane feedback.

As for me, I will run only an "all-steel" tire on my Class-C. (meaning with steel casing/sidewalls). As I need a M+S tire, and the Michelin XPS Rib does meet that criteria, I have opted for the Goodyear G947 RSS Armor MAX. While I had no complaints about my OEM Michelin LTX M+S, and put 32,000 miles on them before replacing due to minor (but still usable) sidewall cracking, I can say that the Goodyear G947, by comparison, leaves me feeling much more "sure footed".

I have them on the front of my "C". Excellent. I'd have them on the rear but were not available out in the corn fields of Illinois when I needed them.
