Hercules Terra Trac Cross‑V
Meet the Hercules Terra Trac Cross-V, an all-season tire built for daily confidence. It delivers predictable steering, secure wet braking, and a smooth, quiet ride on city streets and highways. Wide water channels resist hydroplaning, and full-depth sipes keep traction consistent as the miles add up. A durable compound targets long service life, and low rolling resistance helps trim fuel costs, making the Cross-V a smart, value-forward upgrade.
Key Features of the Terra Trac Cross‑V
The Terra Trac Cross-V is engineered for real-world use. An all-season compound stays pliable across temperatures, with an asymmetric tread and full-depth siping that add bite on wet roads and in light snow while four wide circumferential grooves move water quickly to reduce hydroplaning. A tuned contact patch supports even wear and long life, while the casing balances stability with ride comfort. Low rolling resistance aids fuel efficiency, and a staggered block sequence helps keep pattern noise low.
Road Performance: Dry, Wet, and Light Snow
On dry pavement, the Cross-V feels composed and responsive, ideal for commuting and highway miles. In wet weather, open shoulders and full-depth sipes clear water and maintain grip under braking and quick lane changes. For light winter duty, the all-season compound and dense siping provide workable traction on slush and light snow. For deep snow, prolonged ice, or severe cold, a 3PMSF all-weather tire or dedicated winter tire remains the safer choice.
Sizes & Fitment Guidance
Popular sizes include 225/65R17, 235/65R18, 275/55R20, and 275/60R20. Always confirm size, load index, and speed rating on your driver's door-jamb label or in the owner's manual before buying. If you're changing wheel diameter or upsizing, consult a tire professional to maintain load capacity, overall diameter, and proper clearance. Inflate to the vehicle maker's recommended cold psi, not the maximum pressure printed on the tire.
Pricing & Value
Price varies by size, load rating, and availability, with larger diameters and higher load indexes typically costing more. Watch for bundles that include mounting, balancing, rotations, and road hazard coverage to lower total cost of ownership. To see today's best price, choose your size, add to cart, and check for current rebates. When comparing quotes, include services like TPMS rebuild kits and an alignment check for an apples-to-apples view.
Warranty & Maintenance
The Terra Trac Cross-V generally carries a mileage warranty along with limited workmanship and materials coverage, though terms can vary by size and region. Review the official warranty booklet and any retailer road hazard program at checkout. Rotate every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, maintain the OE cold inflation pressure, and keep alignment and suspension in spec. Good maintenance supports even wear, consistent handling, and full use of your coverage.
Customer Reviews & Real‑World Feedback
Drivers often praise the Cross-V for its quiet ride, comfortable manners, and confident wet-road performance. Many also note steady tread wear when rotations are done on schedule and appreciate the strong value for the money. Light winter traction is suitable for everyday use, but dedicated winter tires still outperform it in severe cold and deep snow. For the most relevant insights, read reviews from owners with vehicles and climates similar to yours.
Terra Trac Cross‑V vs. Cross‑V AW
Both options are built for year-round confidence, but they emphasize different needs. The Terra Trac Cross-V prioritizes quiet comfort, efficient rolling, and balanced wet and dry traction, a good match for temperate climates. The Cross-V AW focuses on enhanced winter capability, and many all-weather models carry the 3PMSF severe-snow symbol. If you regularly face freezing temps or packed snow, choose the AW variant or a dedicated winter tire; for mostly mild conditions with occasional light snow, the standard Cross-V is a strong value.

Do you have a question about TERRA TRAC CROSS-V LT235/80R17 E 120/117R?
The Terra Trac Cross-V is an all-season touring tire for everyday road use. Its tread pattern, full-depth siping, and wide grooves help deliver confident wet traction, quiet highway manners, and even wear. The construction favors stable handling and efficient rolling to support fuel economy. If you see frequent severe winter weather, consider an all-weather or winter tire for maximum cold-weather grip.
Tread life depends on driving style, climate, vehicle condition, rotation intervals, and proper inflation. The Cross-V is typically backed by a mileage warranty, so check your specific size and the warranty booklet for details. Rotate every 5,000 to 7,500 miles, keep pressures at the door-jamb spec, and maintain alignment to promote even wear. Smooth acceleration, braking, and cornering also extend life.
