Pete, I imagine some of what James is describing could be contributed to how stiff they spring the 3500 Vans to accommodate the high cargo loading they are designed for. Combined with the Highway Rib tires you see on them...no doubt they need the 10-12 ply tires but imagine Michelins are other quality radials would improve their road manners. I would; however, be concerned with visibility out of them, making changing lanes and backing a trailer without a spotter a bit more challenging.
