I like them and have them on my coach now. Gray hound uses them as well as some touring buses. Be careful on sand soIL as they tend to settle in (you could get stuck).

If considering Cooper, also price compare them with Hankook's. Hankook's were getting positive reviews by those who had them. As I recall they were the AH11 and AH12's - but that was about 3 1/2 years ago, when I needed replacements for two damaged Michelin's, during a Michelin shortage. Two different Tire Professionals I've worked with over the years, suggested Hankook's to me. As I was about to go with them, a pair of young born on date BG Goodrich ST230's became available. They had been my third choice 9 or so years ago, when shopping for tires for our Allure (Michelin XZE*'s, Bridgestone R250's, BF Goodrich ST230's.). So, I went with the ST230's.
I've talked to owner's of 19.5 shod coaches with Coopers, as I recall RM253's(?) - and they liked the price and had had no problems with performance or wear.
Good luck to you on your choice:)!
