Bad Weather Meets its Match with Double Coin RLB1 Tire

A winter storm tracking from the Midwest into the Northeast early this week will continue to snarl travel and potentially close more interstates as it spreads dangerous snow and ice through parts of those regions. 

If you’re an owner operator who regularly deals with nasty road conditions, take a look at the Double Coin RLB1 open shoulder drive tire.

Driver/mechanic Chris Diehl is sure glad he did because he regularly deals with tractor trailer in snowsnow, ice and mud when hauling grain out of Midwest farms.

“They grip real good on the snow and ice,” he said, noting that he hauls a dump trailer and sometimes a hopper. “I very seldom get stuck.”

Diehl (pictured below) has worked for Ray’s Trucking for 13 years as a driver and chief mechanic. He said he began using the RLB1s on the drive axle about eight years ago and had previous experience with Firestone and Dayton drive tires. “The Double Coins just seem to turn the corners easier and they clean out better. They’ve been a tremendous asset for us.”
