The Power King Super Highway II tires receive mixed reviews, with a majority of customers expressing satisfaction with the product's performance and value.
The Power King Super Highway II tires are generally well-received, especially by classic vehicle enthusiasts and those seeking a vintage look. They offer good value for money and perform well in various conditions. However, some quality control issues have been reported, and the ride quality may not be as smooth as more expensive modern tires. These tires seem best suited for specific applications where their retro appearance and durability are prioritized over the latest tire technology.
Positive highlights
Excellent retro look, ideal for vintage vehicle restorations. Good value for money. Suitable for various applications including tractors, campers, and classic trucks. Smooth ride quality after initial break-in period. Durable and long-lasting. Good traction in winter snow and rain conditions. Thick and strong construction.
Negative highlights
Some customers reported issues with sidewall splitting. Rough ride for the first 5-10 miles after sitting overnight. A few instances of tires not being true round, causing balancing issues. One customer likened the ride to a "Conestoga wagon".

After 30 years of use on my utility trailer, it was time for new rubber. 6.50x16 isn't a common size and after a search found the tires at Simple Tire. A couple days later they arrived at my home and now are rolling in style ! Thanks

Have only put on 500 miles or so, much too soon to tell. Nor have I winter experience but believe these will do well. The proof of the pudding is in the eating.

For the price, these are a really good value in tire! The ride is very good, though not as good as expensive brands like Michelin. The noise is not quite as quiet as those brands either. However, for half the price they are not that much different. The traction in winter snow and rain has been excellent. I would buy these again in a heartbeat.

I'm really surprised how easy this was. I o ly needed one at first and they were inexpensive. Bu I had it mailed to my local tire shop and they mounted and balanced it. I was so surprised at the quality for the price I re- ordered a whole set plus a spare. Than you guys the tires are better than pro. Ised a d o time. Just two days shipping!

I've only had these for about three months and only driven it a few times. After sitting it does get a little flat spots but does not last very long as your drive they go away. So far it seems to handle pretty well for my use.

Installed these tires on my 49 Ford F1. I was looking for a classic looking tire, with modern performance. These tires are great and were purchased at a great price!

I am really happy with the 6.50 x 16 tires I received for an old teardrop trailer built in the 1950s. They aren't that easy to find, especially at a reasonable price. Shipping was prompt. I will definitely order again. Thanks!
