I just took delivery of an 05 XLT 5.4 4x2 with Hankooks. Whatta name. Which is worse, that or KUMHO...I was familiar with them in the Class 8 market (tractor-trailers) and they came over here hunting for market share. I guess they got it, cuz all the trucks on the dealer lot that I was interested in had them. Salesman (personal friend) said, Hey, you want us to put HanKooks on 'em or go back to Firestone? NOT.

Ive had them on my 04 XLT... I had to replace one of them because of an un-repairable puncture.. the replacement cost for one was about $90.... The store manager at the tire shop had to special order them as Hankook was the only company that made the unusually small for truck sized 235's... He added that these tires were quality tires but probably should have been made for a lighter truck or a passenger car... I agree.... great ride.. but visually they werent as appealing as id like.. I ended up lifting my truck with the new 6" fabtech lift kit (which now comes in black by the way) so of course had to get wheels to match ( 17" pro-comp xtreme alloys / 35" pro-comp A/T's)<----happier with these
