Low noise... never paid attention or notice the noise actually.

Those look cool Herc. Reminds me of a guy back in Michigan that I knew who had a Dodge Intrepid. It was painted EXACTLY like Bill Elliot's red Dodge and even had the yellow lettered tires.

Those are great looking tires Herc! Exactly what I would have gone with if I wasn't worried about the speed rating. The only thing you need now is a black rim to go with them.... I saw an '85 Monte SS mocked up like Earnhardts on the street the other day. I would love to give my car the Nascar look without the decals. Later now, Clint

Tell me how they handle herc. I'm still deciding.. (yes I take lost of time, consideration, and plan alot when it comes to something new for my baby).
Alas, I am leaning toward the FireHawks. They are rated better over the Nascar #1's... i'll have to read more reviews and do more research. This is a big thing. Tires can go a long way, if the right ones are bought, and treated correctly.

I'll have to agree with you TastyBake. I've got the AquaTred 3 also. Last a long time and handle great in rain and snow, but DANG, they're way too noisy!! I've got 50K on mine and they still have plenty of tread left on them.

I'm lucky. My tread is FINALLY going down. Its now almost unbearible to drive on the highway.
Herc: Nice! I didn't know they came in white letters. I thought you can only get yellow. Oh, and I've been on tire rack comparing tires. I'm looking for a low noise, high quality tire that can handle snow the best. Speed is not an option. 118 rating is fine with me.
Probably going to go with the Traction T/As.
