The Power King Super Highway tires receive mixed reviews, with a majority of customers expressing satisfaction with the product, particularly for use on vintage and classic vehicles.
The Power King Super Highway tires appear to be a popular choice for owners of classic and vintage vehicles, offering a good balance of price, availability in rare sizes, and period-correct appearance. While most users are satisfied with the performance and quality, there are some isolated reports of manufacturing issues that affect ride quality and balance.
Positive highlights
Good quality tires for the price. Suitable for vintage and classic trucks, particularly from the 1950s and 1960s. Aesthetically pleasing on older vehicles. Smooth ride quality after initial break-in period. Available in rare sizes that are difficult to find elsewhere. Perform well under hard braking conditions (for competition use).
Negative highlights
Some customers reported issues with tires being out of round. Initial roughness in ride quality for the first 5-10 miles after sitting overnight. One instance of poor balancing and performance.

The tires were shipped fast and as promised. Too early to give an accurate rating on the tires themselves. Service was great.

The tires are brand new so I can't rate for tread life. I've only had the tires for the months of August and September so I can't rate for winter traction.

We purchased tires for an old '60 Chevy dump truck. Not only were they able to supply them but they had them on hand to ship immediately. We are very pleased with the great quality for a low price.

They are round, so that's good. No holes in them, so they are holding air. They roll, but don't rock. Have a bunch of letters and numbers on the sidewall, but I can't read and write.
The tires that I purchased were just normal boring commercial variety. They are working as they should. I have only driven on them maybe 200 miles.

The Power King Super Highway is a high-quality medium-duty trailer tire that's suitable for highway use. Constructed using solid nylon cord body plies, the Super Highway provides greater strength and the tire's deep tread has non-skidding characteristics and can be regrooved for increased utility. A reinforced carcass allows for more agility to withstand long highway drives, and the Super Highway's premium tread design is optimized for increased handling and reduced risk of trailer swaying. Additionally, the center ribs of the Super Highway enhance stability while unique siping technology ensures traction by increasing grip.
