“Used on the 797B Caterpillar dump truck”
In 1963, Robert E. Hester Sr. began his trucking business with one truck, driving and repairing it himself. With ideas of growth and expansion, he leased tractors to major corporations and operated his own fleet, hauling dry and refrigerated freight and opening a maintenance shop to provide service and repair for his own trucks and those of local companies. After graduation, his sons, Robert E. Hester Jr. and E. Reynold Hester, joined Hester Tire Pros and continued to expand and develop the business into what it is today. Hester Tire Pros now specializes in passenger and commercial tire service. The full-service repair shop is large and comprehensive enough for both passenger and commercial fleet services. Hester Tire Pros also maintains and operates commercial trucks, hauling throughout the United States.
Calling shenanigans on this, it is a tiny largest tire. Not even a sign to say it's the largest! Nope, I've been scammed. And I had to see a lot of nothing, North Carolina to get to it. In other news, people around here look like republicans...they are armed and dangerous.
Very small. Not worth the time.
Soooooo agreed on shenanigans! Plus Siri took us on a way out of that town that made us pass it three times. I think that town tries to suck you in haha
So small, so far off the interstate, really not worth the stop, especially if you are in a hurry.
Smallest largest tire I've ever seen. Don't waste your time.
We got what we expected, was not disappointed.
This can't be as large as the Uniroyal Tire outside of Detroit.
Very underwhelming. It's along a neat winding back road with old ruined barns, if that's your thing. Not really worth the detour.
