Yep.
I've been selling, installing and diagnosing problems with them for about 7 years. Offhand, not a bad tire, depending on your usage. Really not for specialty applications, even the higher load range D and E, more or less because of the tread design than anything. It's a basic surface street and highway truck tire that will handle loads fairly well (again, probably not for the dually guy hauling a fifth wheel, but a small trailer, with some equipment, or the odd load of lumber). It isn't noisy (and if you're driving a truck, remember it's a truck, not a luxury liner, noise comes with the territory, or at least, it should), and has decent wet pavement handling. Keep your set properly inflated, rotate and balance when you should, maintain your suspension and you should get exactly out of them what they're warrantied for. Also, I see a lot of people ignore their load index rating in favor of saving money - not only is this unsafe, the tire won't operate in conditions for which it was designed, and it will wear a whole lot faster.
