Samson has a wide variety of tires designed for various jobs, including commercial, industrial, and so on. One of them is the GL687D, a wonderful drive position tire crafted for trucks. Thanks to its smart design, this model handles a lot of surfaces without issues, offering strong traction and durability.
Primarily, the Samson GL687D has a directional tread pattern that ensures a peaceful ride. The angled blocks deliver the best surface contact and handling accuracy, resulting in better responsiveness. Also, the open shoulders add extra lateral grip and boost the cornering performance, helping you take sharp turns without worries. In addition, the shoulders promote even tread wear for a longer service life. Aside from that, the deep grooves evacuate water from the patch to reduce the risk of aquaplaning. This increases safety and grants more control of your truck, regardless of weather conditions.
What's more, the robust sidewalls of the Samson GL687D raise the load capability to help you carry heavier hauls. Specifically, thanks to them, a single tire can safely withstand up to 8,820 lbs, depending on size. Moreover, the sidewalls protect the rim from lateral impacts, preventing costly downtime and repairs. The tire features a smart placement of sipes that create extra biting edges, improving grip and fighting off heat buildup. With a modern rubber compound, this model creates a low rolling resistance that cuts fuel usage. Finally, this model is available on the market in popular sizes with rim diameters of 19.5" and 22.5".
