I recently purchased (4) of these for the rear of my Class A motorhome before heading to Alaska. I wanted something with a slightly aggressive tread pattern, just in case. I also purchased a set of Samson GL283A for the front. The tires were delivered to my local installer, where they were mounted, balanced and installed. Just driving home, I was impressed at the difference new tires made in the ride and handling! It was like driving a new motorhome. Since then, I've put about 700 miles on the tires and I'm still impressed. It feels solid under me and the road noise is minimal. I'll update when I return from my trip.

Suitable for use on delivery vans, trucks, and 18-wheelers, the Samson Radial Truck GL268D (Open Shoulder) tire features an innovative tread design with a blocked pattern that offers low rolling resistance along with better traction on dry and wet surfaces. While the sturdy polymers enhance its year-round stability, the optimized pattern of the Radial Truck GL268D (Open Shoulder) allows for quick disposal of water from the surface to resist hydroplaning in wet conditions.
